Why do people use google?

Probably because it has a reputation for speed.
I don't, personally.
Too much data gathering with no idea of the consequences.

To google dat ass

Because the other search engines bite. Microsoft excel via Bing only gives you 2/3 of a screen. You can't stream video or movies and you can't see half of what you are trying to do when you are typing. The things they use as tabs are a joke.

DuckSuckGo is terrible. I tried it. It doesn't have any of the features I want. I tried it for two days and I tried Bing for the same amount of time because I was going to boycott Google. If Bing ever fixes their lame screen I will use them.

I use Firefox with DuckDuckGo search except for youtube,I'm no company's product

You should Google that

I use it because it is one of the few actual search engines, and it was the first good one. Not just a directory look up like some others used to be.

When the internet started i used to use a range of search engines. Now i seem to use google all the time. I'm not even sure why.

It's pretty biased with it's info, but it's the standard 🤷‍♂️

Because it's very good at what it does.

Because it gives great answers.

It was better than the competition at the time, and we just never stopped using it after the old competition folded.
