      Fuck, I remember when I was using Bing religiously unironicaly in the early 2010s during my Extremist Microsoft Loyalist phase.

      The bing homepage is so terrible

      I had a friend that used microsoft edge and bing because they were the default and said that firefox is the worst and edge is much better

      I did switch his default browser to firefox and search engine(on edge) to google(i wanted to switch to duckduckgo, but he hated it for no reason) while he was talking

        Can confirm. Even though everyone shits on Chrome for its liberal use of your RAM, Firefox will never suspend any pages, making it unusable when you’re multitasking.

        That’s an ongoing issue, too! Hasn’t been fixed for maybe a year at this point. Gonna use edge the next time I reinstall windows.

          What are you doing that renders Firefox unusable? I’ve never had this issue in over a decade and I usually have 10+ tabs open.

      I keep clicking on that irritating Copilot AI button because Bing crammed it right in front where the image search tab usually is, and there’s no way to hide/turn it off. Nice
