The gap has been favouring bing (DuckDuckGo) for a while now in my experience. Every time I use Google or just doesn’t find what I’m looking for. Just a few days ago, when Bing was down and I had to use Google, I tried searching for the new beta nvidia Linux drivers. Google didn’t even include the official nvidia site in the first page of results. When I later searched for the same thing again, using DuckDuckGo, it was the first result… and stuff like that happens every time I need to use Google. The only category Google still seems to have a slight edge in is current (as in happening right now) events.
DDG since 2016 when I had to switch because I was in China. Never went back and with everything I hear about Google, I don’t plan to. Only Google thing I still have and enjoy is Maps.
Well when the alternative is Bing quality search results, Google still has a slight edge.
That gap is closing by the day tho.
That gap has flipped. Bing never told me to put glue on pizza or to jump off a bridge if depressed.
It is telling you to eat that deadly mushroom though.If you are referring to the gemini ai model that identified a deadly mushroom as a button mushroom, then that is also google.
You are correct!
It just knows my preferences

If you are willing to pay kagi is great.
I find myself switching to Yandex when both Bing nor Google give good results.
Their CEO is a nutjob tho
