Google on 88.9% of search results clicked and bing on 3.056% with everyone else even less. This is not a competitive market and it seems very stable over time.

- cnst 1y agoIt's not the same everywhere. Look at ru and cz, and note that cn and jp are missing from the list, where Google will likewise probably not be at the top.
- ivape 1y agoWhat do you think most people use when they need a taxi now days? Humans believe the market is some kind of magical place where everyone gets a slice of the pie. This is not true, winners are a thing.

- aidenn0 1y agoWhich is one reason why robust antitrust enforcement is necessary, yet most of the antitrust laws on the books have barely been enforced since the late 70s.
- rcxdude 1y agoThe taxi market is still pretty fragmented. Markets evolve in different ways depending on the nature of the goods and services being exchanged and the environment in which they operate.

- onlyrealcuzzo 1y agoIt really shows you what a bubble HN is. Every post about Google for years has been people saying it's terrible and dead. Kagi gets talked about on here constantly, and it's not even on the list (though I suspect there's a reason?) Even within Google, about a year ago, everyone was saying that Google was dead because of Perplexity, which is barely a blip. It's kind of shocking to see DuckDuckGo is only about 1%, with everything you hear and how much you hear it within certain bubbles.
- brookst 1y agoI’d argue that HN sentiment is a leading indicator, not a claim of current reality. Compared to a year ago, Google has declined from 89.487% to 88.915%. Just half a percent, but IMO it will accelerate. Meanwhile OpenAI has gone from 0.194% to 0.226% in just three months (they weren’t on previous quarter’s reports). Sure, it’ll be years before Google drops to 50%. But it will happen.
- EbNar 1y ago> Kagi gets talked about on here constantly, and it's not even on the list (though I suspect there's a reason?) Being at least 10€/month for the only "useful" tier is a powerful reason for that... Maybe also Kagi being a metasearch engine reduces its visibility? Just speculating, I obviously don't know how it really works.
- chrisweekly 1y agoMy Kagi account is $5 (USD)/ mo and it is VERY useful.
- EbNar 1y agoI meant that only starting from 10 $. You get unlimited searches. I'd burn these in a few days, as I rely heavily on my search engine. Fortunately, I have been able to join a family on sharesub and get "unlimited" for basically half the price. Actually, it's a great search engines, with lots of goodies. I really hope it gets more adoption.
