Change is sometimes slow. Let’s see how Google does as a century old company.

In the grand scheme of things, they’re still a fairly young giant.

The thing is I see it everywhere around me. People don't care looking for a better search engine. Worse I am pretty sure that most people do not know they can choose their search engine and can define whatever is used when searching in the url bar.

From what I see, people don't even care to search anymore. They mostly go direct to an app.

Sure, today. Right now.

That’s what I’m saying. Search engines are still a part young technology in the grand scheme of things.

No reason to believe this is the end state.

I didn’t realize I was looking at the 2020 stats. But the 2024 stats are the same
