The only way I would use something else would be if it offered me
something beyond what Google does. I've tried others, and the search
results are often inferior, or the same, which doesn't leave me with
much reason to use anything other than Google.
I'd happily use a better product if it was offered, but I think that's
probably a tall order.

Hey folks… I’ve been trying to figure out lately where to ask this question ….
I have a long time hobby of working around search engines … actually building
them, coding them, scaling them etc…. various open source, homebuilt, and
commercial offerings I’ve used….
This is probably 20 years I’ve been “dabbling” in this space and seen a huge
change in how search engines are perceived, utilized etc….
My question that I’m looking for feedback on, knowing that this group is
extremely good at feedback is this:
When you use a search engine, do you ever think of using something other than
Google? (ie. Bing, Duckduckgo)
Do you feel a search engine that is country specific is something that you
would go out of your way to use … or just use whatever is in your browser and
don’t care?
Is privacy of what you search for on a search engine of concern at all?
thanks - this helps me a great deal …
I’m considering launching a project involving a search engine and challenged
with what it’s primary focus should be …. :)
Cheers,
Paul
