  • Microsoft’s search engine is nowhere near as good as Google’s.

    I don’t know… Googles search was clearly better five years ago. They clearly still have dominant market share, but they have been shitting up search results the last few years in the name of monetization a lot. I haven’t found their results to be better than bing, at least not by a lot.

    Their algorithm is still good, as if I use a search engine that sources from Google, the results are typically what I would expect. But from Google itself, the results have sponsored content barfed all over actual results and it takes a little effort to find what I was searching for.

    I have gone on to alternative search engines and been so much happier. I will fallback on Google when I need to, but it’s been extremely rare.
