Apple has made this mistake about seven different times, the earliest being with Sherlock on OS9. Mixing local file search with Internet search solves no problem and causes chaos. The use cases for the two kinds of search are very different and users prefer using different tools for these jobs. Just stop doing this, Apple and Microsoft.
- mojuba 7y agoTotally agreed, and Spotlight does the same now on both macOS and iOS. I usually turn everything off in Spotlight except the file search, calculator and conversions. But overall it's still not nearly as bad as Windows'.
- Macha 7y agoIt's weirder with Apple. You can see why Microsoft might do it - it's not in the user's interest, but it is in Microsoft's interest to get more Bing usage. But for Apple, they hardly care how much I use Google.
