Who really needs a search engine nowadays? The google or ddg or whatever is just a search aggregator for making no need to open Wikipedia for searching who is Franko then open weather.com for figuring out the weather next weekend then open SO for quitting vim and so on. I can not remember when I really searched something general last time which is impossible to find via single-site search. And of course free porn videos and other pirated stuff and cool-hacker-utils is never been searched using government-friendly search businesses.
- jjulius 5y agoIt's cool that you've had enough experience to just know where everything that you need is. Not everybody has the same experience with finding things on the internet as you, nor is the average internet user anywhere near as technically-minded as you.
- drexlspivey 5y ago> Who really needs a search engine nowadays? Apparently a lot of people since google processes 6B searches every day?
- thematrixturtle 5y agoI have no idea what the actual number is, but that sounds low. The average HNer probably hits three digits every day easily.
- eimrine 5y ago6B showings of ad-loaded webpage does not mean 6B successful results shown. And my claim is that most of successful google searches is just a wrong choice of a search engine.
