I fucking hate this this is a thing again... We got past this because it was fucking stupid to have to swap between AltaVista, Askjeeves, Yahoo, etc.
Now we're literally at the same point. Just like with streaming services and cable.
At this point I just think the average person is a moron and when enough of them adopt something it goes to shit.
This might just be the best solution to keep things slightly more honest online though. With SEO targeting THE single search engine, it'll forever get gamed by irrelevant/ad based results. If everyone uses different search engines then SEO starts to fall apart
