Seems like a situation where it’s worth it to be cognizant of your bubble.

I don’t know exactly what you meant by “our demographic”, but I’m a frequent reader of HN, work in tech, and generally stay up to date with all things tech, and yet… I don’t know if a single person that doesn’t still use Google as their go-to place for information. Before this comment I had never even heard of Perplexity or You.com. /shrug

Oh, Perplexity is great. It's an LLM that answers with links and explanations of what you'll find in them.

I don't find it useful as a main search engine, but some queries are obviously better handled by something like it.

Anyway, yeah, I guess I'm the only person I know in real life that does not use Google.
