If you'd rather buy me the latest Call of Duty every year to free me from the oh-so-miserable shackles of "tapping some buttons on my phone while I'm on the shitter" and "playing Gamepass games," you are more than welcome to.

I use it at work for stuff I was already going to have to look up, so what is the downside? I am not investing any additional time or energy than I would if I set the default search engine to anything else, but I get a movie rental out of it every other month or so.

Edge is awesome, however Bing is still terrible.

I doubt Bing will be an option in people’s mind because of Google’s first-mover advantage marketing. Google is now a verb and you barely hear people say “Bing it” instead of “google it.”

Also thanks for forced default browser changes with every security update.

I mean I use neither and the best part, I just say… “search it”. Because most of the people I know use DuckDuckGo and startpage.

Also google with their CAPTCHA bullshit. Waste my time, after 2 or 3 , I get a limitless captcha that turns into hell. So I just deal with a search engine that doesn’t recycle me every times

But again… I am 0000000.1% lol

Google results also are mainstream SEO and ads. I’d rather look for legit websites and sources for info that didn’t swing their way into the top spot by paying the ad company money.

Also with their tracking system that holds your hands across the internet …

A pinch of privacy is 1,000 times better than just giving it up.

if edge had a mac version id check it out and bing with ai chat is similar to when google made search work. The founders are gone Schmidt is gone, Sundararajan a glorified product manager is in charge of google

Edge is actually really good but it’ll never catch up with Chrome now.
