    Google isn’t even sure so at least Bing is providing an answer, not that the wrong answer is great

      Bing gets you answers fast.

      they didn’t say they’d be the right answer tho.

          What kinda scam do you mean. I’m using it since 2017 or so and never heard of it.

          (Please don’t recommend me DuckDuckGo - I’d rather use Startpage or Qwant for personal reasons)

        Mine shows a bit more context, did you crop it out or is it just a difference in settings?
