I switched to Bing a few weeks ago and I’d say it’s significantly better than Google. Same quality results (I cross check them occasionally) and far fewer ads.

I thought I was the only one! Bing is great. Bing maps actually has this feature where it saves every search as a separate layer on the map. Very useful when planning trips!

Search mostly seems commoditized but I have been wildly impressed with the entire Microsoft 365 tech stack from a usability perspective. It all just works. And there’s no hidden advertising agenda. I’m the customer and the user.

Have been using DuckDuckGo for about two years now and not missed Google Most of their products are now sufficiently mediocre enough that it’s possible to ditch them except for the multiplayer apps (Docs, Sheets, etc)

I use DuckDuckGo quite a bit, which uses Bing on back end? I’ve found it’s not as good as Google.

A lot of people don't know this, but you can go into AdBlock settings and turn off "Allow some non-intrusive advertising" to get rid of search ads on Google.

Checkout Startpage: https://www.startpage.com/ it’s a Google search without tracking. And then yes, Brave Search is a combination of Google and bing, so is DuckDuckGo.

Reminds me of a story my friend (engineer) who interviewed at Microsoft told me. During the technical challenge, they told him he could use any and all resource to solve the problem. So, he said he would Google it. They gave him a look, and said, "We use Bing here." He didn't get the job 😂
