God it is so annoying how bloated Google feels these days - it's becoming more and more frequent for me just to use Bing because it actually gives me what I'm asking for rather than burying it in everything "similar" to it

Bing is not better. That's how sad it all is.

[-] Th4tGuyII@kbin.social 16 points 10 months ago

Exactly, it isn't even better, it just actually does what you ask. That's how low the bar is

[-] Neato@kbin.social -1 points 10 months ago

Yeah. I use Bing now. And edge. Because when I setup my new PC I couldn't be arsed to change it. Bing sucks, it's just that Google now sucks just as much.

Why not Firefox? That plus uBlock Origin = pleasant browsing.

Search Engine wise - I use a mixture depending on what kind of thing I'm after. Need to try out SearxNG though.

[-] Neato@kbin.social 4 points 10 months ago

I should. I use FF on my phone. It's just laziness and inertia at this point. I am surprised how usable Edge is compared to how people rag on it.

[-] TigrisMorte@kbin.social 6 points 10 months ago

It is just chrome dude.

[-] IronKrill@lemmy.ca 4 points 10 months ago

People around here rag on it because it's Chrome with AI baggage. Anyone ragging on it for not working probably hasn't used it since it was using Microsoft's khtml or they're conflating it with IE.

I actually recommend floorp browser. It's a Firefox, fork and it has a lot of the features of edge (but better) like the option to use edge's fluent design theme, the sidebar, where any website and select extensions can be added in a mobile format, and a fully customisable vertical tab layout, with tons of other options for tabs.

[-] Neato@kbin.social 1 points 10 months ago

Does Floorp update when Firefox updates or does it require the Floorp devs to build in the FF updates?

[-] Interstellar_1@pawb.social 1 points 10 months ago

Floorp is based on Firefox ESR. Floorp will be updated every 4 weeks, with security updates provided before each Firefox release.

Install + import all your bookmarks and data from Edge. It couldnt be easier.
