The Verge published this spam article about the “best printers of 2024” to demonstrate how terrible Google’s search results are. It now appears as the top non-sponsored post if you search “best printer” on Google.

I love a good, informative troll.

    For the record though, I used bing for the duration of 2023, sort of as an experiment to use the ai assistant.

    Bing search is worse that Google by a long shot. I almost always gave up and used Google.

      Honestly, I think almost everything else is worse than Google.

      I set my default to duck duck go, and it’s getting better, but I still fall back on google with some regularity

      well, that was last year, right?
      I wouldn’t bet on Bing search results having gotten better since then, but I would bet on Google search results having gotten worse since then.

      I see a lot of my friends actually use Bing through ChatGPT, and they seem to get better results than Google. That might be what Microsoft is actually optimizing Bing for

      Bing is even more heavily monetized and encrusted with garbage than Google is.
