So since Windows 8 came out, I have been using Bing for search and IE to browse the web. It\u2019s been five years now. I was just completely tired of customizing dumb stuff like a browser. Just let me use stock stuff and move on with my life.<\/p>\n
Well, Google can\u2019t find shit for me now. It\u2019s just not good, DuckDuckGo does better. And of course after Bing aggregated my data, Bing\u2019s the best for me.<\/p>\n
I didn\u2019t think I would use IE for that long, but the truth is that as soon as you have some ad-blocking going on, the browser in itself doesn\u2019t matter. The funniest part would be that once every six months or maybe once a year, a website would not work in IE. I would immediately go hard on myself like \u201cboy you dumb as shit, you know this website has been optimized for the mighty Webkit engine, all the kids only know Chrome now, they only develop for it so that\u2019s why\u201d.<\/p>\n
Then I would load up the website in Chrome and it would be fucked up exactly like it was in IE. I would smile and shake my head at the absurd witch hunt out there, and the insanity of being mad at someone using one car instead of another one on the information freeways. I grossed myself out with this metaphor but this is what we\u2019re doing these days. \u201cDon\u2019t use that car omg!!\u201d \u201cWhy? It works and I know what I\u2019m doing. Shut up\u201d<\/p>\n
All browsers suck and they\u2019re all good enough. Search engines suck until they get your data and then they\u2019re pretty good.<\/p>\n
Computers are basic, people. Google is not some kind of magic trick. If they can\u2019t get your data, their services are immediately not that great.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
