I've been using Bing ever since it became apparent that Google likes to filter search results to better suit their agenda.

No because Microsoft is dumb.

If hypothetically they partnered with P Hub and integrated Bing into the site's search functionality, they would've had a huge hit on their hands. Bing was only ever good for porn and that's it.

It did, in fact, make a dent into Google's "search engine" marketshare, however, it did not make a dent into what really matters which is their adsense and affiliate programs which are found everywhere even outside of Google's products.

Even then, that's no longer true.

Yeah I'm put off by the name more than anything else. If it was named something else other than this stupid bing name, I would have maybe given it a try.

I've used Bing for a couple of years now, I haven't had any complaints. Its reverse image search works way better for me than Google's does as well.

Yeah. If you Google "how to kill yourself" the top results are basically all crisis hotlines but you get actual answers on Bing.

They don't just wrap Bing results in a different skin, they do a bit more, but yeah they use the Bing API as the base for their search results.

I just bought yet another new phone using the rewards. I also have Game Pass Ultimate for 3 years because of the rewards program.

They are cookie free. The results should be very similar to opening a private browser and searching Bing. They might be slightly different due to how they handle affiliates but mostly the same.

yeah I enjoy comparing their search result differences with google for the same thing. Really is an eye opener to just how much google customizes your search results for better or worse
