I remember interviewing at Google years ago (if you’re keeping score, it was 2012/2013 just before their stock hiccupped and my onboarding was killed as I was only a 97% fit), and the guy was religious about page load times. “We cut 200 lines of code if it’ll give us a millisecond of page load speed”, that kind of thing.
well they don’t need to fight for new users anymore. Everyone uses it already, and children are basically indoctrinated to it: all schools have that as search engine, often they even use google classroom and drive and whatnot on the classes. if they have chromebooks, the chrome browser automatically starts after login even if you don’t want to use it, and you can’t unpin it from the taskbar either

How they’ve fallen.

Google sucks so bad that I switched to Bing. BING!
You’re a decade late on that, Bing isn’t good anymore
fuckya life BING BONG
DuckDuckGo for day-to-day stuff, Bing for naughty content.
Careful saying that round these parts, you’ll summon the ducks.
