95% just isn't good enough.
- musha68k 8y agoSearch result quality is not a clear-cut issue. In my experience DDG/Bing even yield subjectively better results sometimes.
- thisisweirdok 8y agoSame, there's some personal preference too. I don't always want to be shoved into the extreme bubble that Google builds for people. DDG is much better for searches that I don't want personalized results for.
- darkpuma 8y agoIt's good enough 95% of the time. There is nothing stopping you from falling back to google that 5% of the time.
- kojeovo 8y agoOr just continue to use Google and get better results every time.
- isostatic 8y agoGiven that google also fails to give me the result I want at least 5% of the time, I guess nothing is good enough.
- tombert 8y ago95% is typically fine for me; I typically do the !g or !s thing when I don't get an answer quick enough. It is pretty rare that I don't find an answer after that.
- kelnos 8y agoSure it is. For the other 5%, you can spend an extra 3 seconds searching again on Google, if you really need to.
