I mean on one hand, terrible behavior. On the other, good.
I mean, if it's just a switch to Bing it's not really any better.
I mean I see your point, but you cold also argue that anything that can weaken a monopoly is a good thing, in the grand scheme of things
Who’s monopoly are we talking about? If that’s the goal then Firefox + DuckDuckGo would be more sensible right?
DuckDuckGo's search results suck, is there another alternative I can use that gets its indexes from google? I don't care about censorship
I think Ecosia pulls results from Bing if that’s any better? I use them occasionally but generally prefer DDG.
I use StartPage but it's incredibly slow.
Ah yeh, I tried StartPage for a while. IIRC the image results page wasn’t so great. Not many filter options and so on.
100% but Microsoft and Google splitting 50 - 50 would be better than the current Google 90 - 9.9 - 0.1 it currently is.
Of course it would be more sensible, but that was not the point
