Ask HN: If you could only use one, would you pick Google or Reddit?

This is a tougher question than I initially thought. To be honest, I really don't care much for either anymore.

I rely on phind for my internet searches, while ChatGPT serves me for figuring out anything. If needed, I could always revert back to bing for internet scraping.

Honestly, I have grown to somewhat dislike both. I suppose I wouldn't mind eliminating either and seeing which one I miss more.

I’m the CEO of Phind. What have you grown to dislike and how can we make it better?

"Dislike both={Google,Reddit}" would be my interpretation here.

That's a great question!

The results are great, but it does take a little bit of time to show up, but that's expected with today's technology.

The thing that keeps me from using it instead of Google are really things like having a map show up or news results or photos.

That and the fact that I can't make it a default search in Safari or that easily.

Gotcha, that all makes sense. We’ll be making it faster shortly. And we’ll look into making it easier to set as the default on Safari.
