I use Google Search because the results are superior to Bing or DuckDuckGo, across many instances during the day.
Or if they’re not superior they’re not inferior.
Whereas when I use other search engines I have the nagging feeling I’m missing better information on Google.
- cassianoleal 4y ago> when I use other search engines I have the nagging feeling I’m missing better information on Google. Are you though? I've been using DDG for years now as my primary search engine. When I started, I used !g quite often precisely because of that feeling. These days I have a hard time even remembering to try it when a search is unfruitful. The reason being that it became less and less useful, and these days even when I do remember trying it, it generally doesn't add anything useful to my results.
- Waterluvian 4y agoDDG has been a non-start for image searches. But for limited scope things like looking up software libraries (basically: I already know what I want) I’ve found it to be fine.
- afiori 4y agoIt is better on mobile, but on desktop google.com gives almost a full page of ads before the first result.
- unsupp0rted 4y agoUsing an ad blocker, I suppose I just forgot or didn't know this, so it hasn't been a factor in my search engine choice
