You should use bing or duckduckgo. I've been hearing lately on HN that they are many orders better than Google.

Many orders? Come on. I have had better results on one or the other and flip between them but not “orders of magnitude” different.

I have found the opposite to be the case.

At searching? I can't comment on bing but duckduckgo is different, not necessarily better. In fact for vague matches and context sensitive terms it's quite a bit worse than google.

[grepfru_it]

definitely not duckduckgo. bing has been on par, with technical searches but lacking otherwise

Keep in mind this is changing over time. Search engines do not stand still, I keep bouncing between Google and DDG, the former has been steadily decreasing in quality and the later increasing to the point that I now use DDG first.

I'm not necessarily saying your opinion at this moment in time will change, only that you should re-evaluate it occasionally.

Why not DDG? I switched from Google to DDG a few years ago, and have been satisfactorily using it since.
