I would want that to be true, but I just don't buy it. I remember search in the early days, and I honestly don't remember having a huge speed difference for most search sites. The homepage of all of them was relatively fast to load.
Now, Yahoo and a few others were quick to jump into "portals" of news and such. That slowed down. But altavista and other base search pages were fast enough. (If a bit hard to remember the names of.) (I do find it funny that I remember so few of the options now.)
- taskforcegemini 3y agoprobably something difficult to know for a fact, as most people may not pick their tools as consciously. I however remember vividly the clean design winning me over instantly, compared to the alternatives, which were overloaded with ads or other content I was not interested in. same could and still can be said for gmail compared to other freemailers like gmx. but I'm sure google will not stop enshittifying all their services till they are ready for their graveyard.
