So if you (Google) have two many special days to handle, why not eliminate some of the ones that feature boring dead white men?

fuck google -- they've been trending evil for years, but this time they've really gone over the edge. Haven't used Google much at all for several years now, not since I understood just how much personal data they capture and use, but I hope they crash and burn big time over this. Vichy France assholes.

'six months from now, when Trump explodes because searching “Trump tariffs effect on inflation” brings up accurate results?' assumes that six months from now, searching for anything about Trump will bring up accurate results.

Deleted chrome today. I haven’t used it in a couple of years. Happy with DuckDuckGo. Deleted G map app when they announced their stupid change to Gulf of Mexico. (I mistyped duck as dick the first two times. Just being transparent here.)

Google Really. Do Better. You know better. Or lose customers quickly. We are ready to ditch you.

The truly PATHETIC thing?

Google has more money than gawud and deffo more money than fucking FELONIA (Pussy Ass Bitch has NEVER had any real money of course.)

They could afford enough $$$$ shysters and litigation to RUIN our First Nazi Couple.

They actually *agree* with this fasciam.

I just made the change last night. I'd heard there would be a trade off on quality, but have not found that to be the case. Searches aren't bloated with ads and AI crap. The web browser is much faster.

Still proudly not using Chrome or Google as a search engine except as mandated by my workplace. And fuck Google for the whole "Gulf of America" bullshit, and their crappy generative AI search which is the bane of every marketer's existence. And it must be remembered that every holiday on any calendar is just an excuse for eating and drinking, and if we do enough of the latter, we will not care what holiday we are celebrating.

Try Duck Duck Go. I downloaded it last night and have been very happy with it so far. They will pull all of your bookmarks from Chrome. You just have to sign into everything again.

A friend suggested duckduckgo, and it's really nice. Like OG Google.

| It was simply that all those crazy observances were too much for its workers to keep track of.

This from the search app that never fails to remind me when it is either National or World Pizza Day
