Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

God it is so annoying how bloated Google feels these days - it's becoming more and more frequent for me just to use Bing because it actually gives me what I'm asking for rather than burying it in everything "similar" to it

Bing is not better. That's how sad it all is.

[–] Th4tGuyII@kbin.social 15 points 10 months ago

Exactly, it isn't even better, it just actually does what you ask. That's how low the bar is

Yeah. I use Bing now. And edge. Because when I setup my new PC I couldn't be arsed to change it. Bing sucks, it's just that Google now sucks just as much.

Why not Firefox? That plus uBlock Origin = pleasant browsing.

Search Engine wise - I use a mixture depending on what kind of thing I'm after. Need to try out SearxNG though.

I should. I use FF on my phone. It's just laziness and inertia at this point. I am surprised how usable Edge is compared to how people rag on it.

[–] TigrisMorte@kbin.social 6 points 10 months ago

It is just chrome dude.

[–] IronKrill@lemmy.ca 3 points 10 months ago

People around here rag on it because it's Chrome with AI baggage. Anyone ragging on it for not working probably hasn't used it since it was using Microsoft's khtml or they're conflating it with IE.

Install + import all your bookmarks and data from Edge. It couldnt be easier.

I've changed over to DuckDuckGo completely now. Rarely use Google, only if it's something DDG can't find for whatever reason (usually local Irish stuff).

Never once has bing given me what I've searched for. Not once.
