Microsoft now has implemented "compare with Bing chat" button when you visit Google Bard in Edge
When you visit the Google's chatbot bard's website in Microsoft Bing. A New Button pops up besides the search bar which lets you compare bard results with Bing chat's. I have no idea why they implemented this, well maybe to show off the their chatbot is better than bard or something?
You're viewing part of a thread.
Well, they also mangle/limit the Google Search on Firefox for Android. If you change your useragent to Chrome, it will show just fine, so it's not issue with Firefox, it's deliberate.
DDG has better results anyway
Google's results these days are shit. The other day I googled an exact terraform resource and included "terraform" in my search query. The first result should've been the page for that resource in terraform's documentation, but that page wasn't in the results at all. What was there was a blogspam copy of said page.
Doesn't DDG just use Bing?
No, they operate their own crawlers.
Per https://duckduckgo.com/duckduckgo-help-pages/results/sources/:
We also maintain our own crawler (DuckDuckBot) and many indexes to support our results. Of course, we have more traditional links and images in our search results too, which we largely source from Bing. Our focus is synthesizing all these sources to create a superior search experience.
Oh interesting. I've seen their crawlers in my server logs, didn't know they were using it to augment Bing.
Yeah, I forget about that until I get a new phone and have to reinstall that extension..
