I mean on one hand, terrible behavior. On the other, good.

[-] NaibofTabr@infosec.pub 18 points 11 months ago

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

[-] idotherock@lemm.ee 4 points 11 months ago

Who’s monopoly are we talking about? If that’s the goal then Firefox + DuckDuckGo would be more sensible right?

[-] Darorad@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

100% but Microsoft and Google splitting 50 - 50 would be better than the current Google 90 - 9.9 - 0.1 it currently is.

DuckDuckGo's search results suck, is there another alternative I can use that gets its indexes from google? I don't care about censorship

[-] idotherock@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago

I think Ecosia pulls results from Bing if that’s any better? I use them occasionally but generally prefer DDG.

[-] Yoru@lemmy.ml 1 points 11 months ago

I use StartPage but it's incredibly slow.

[-] idotherock@lemm.ee 0 points 11 months ago

Ah yeh, I tried StartPage for a while. IIRC the image results page wasn’t so great. Not many filter options and so on.

[-] ominouslemon@lemm.ee 0 points 11 months ago

Of course it would be more sensible, but that was not the point
