The new Bing runs on OpenAI’s GPT-4

I am not installing Edge just to use it. Microsoft must stop shoving down their ecosystem for one tool they want me to try out.

You can fake your user-agent, which most browser dev tools can do.

I actually switched from Brave to Edge over the last few weeks and now use Edge exclusively. I don't notice a difference except that now I have to install ublock origin.

I actually use Bing now and not Google. It's crazy! A year ago if you told me this I would have laughed. Google for sure needs to respond or they will go the way of Altavista.

Same! I've done this since the year 2020 and overall don't miss Google search or Chrome at all.

Why in the hell is this doenvoted? Every two months Edge grows some new feature to help me "shop" or some other bs.

There are literally 3x as many knobs to disable "yes, plz hijack my data" in Edge than Chrome.

Edge isn't my default browser (Mac user here) but my experience has been the same. It's amazing how bad most of my Google results have become. Was pleasantly surprised by Bing results recently. DuckDuckGo is my #2 now.

I never thought I'd even say this, but I have finally "degoogled" everything.

Example: I just used Bing in Precise mode to ask about a cardiac arrhythmia drug dose. Bing gave me the correct response. Google gave me 5 different advertisements and drugs.com, which is also littered with advertisements.

I mean, it worked for Google.

it only worked for them when they had a virtual monopoly in the search space, prior to that they treated users with absolute deference

I know I won’t convince you but I think Edge is better than stock chrome. It has active development on interesting features.

Weird to think they’re shoving their ecosystem. It’s a beta. You’re welcome to wait for the full release.

There’s no technical reason to enforce Edge, if you change the user agent it works fine in any browser. So it’s clearly leveraging demand in one product to try to push an unrelated one

An unheard of strategy in the business world, of course
