  2. Meh, I still have to come here anytime I want an actual goddamn answer.

  3. And I bet the bing searches are either accidental or boomers who dont realise its not google.

  6. It’s crazy how much creatures of habit we are. Google hasn’t justified this share for a long time, but they once did and we still default to it.

  7. So China has 1.4 B people and Baidu has less than 1% of the market share? That for sure cannot be “Global”, unless what they consider the globe is he US and Europe

  8. This is total bullshit. Nobody in China uses Google as it’s banned. 1.4 billion people in the most phone addicted society on earth is less than 1% of traffic?

  9. Ecosia ftw, hopefully the European search index will come soon.

  10. I can see my stats in ddg. I have used it for about a decade now. 

  11. Somewhat misleading, since these global stats reflect international usage. Baidu is massive within China, but its global share looks small because nearly all of its users are domestic. With China’s internet siloed by the ‘great firewall,’ Baidu doesn’t operate internationally the way Google does but still accounts for a lot of the world’s search engine usage.

  12. The fact that baidu, the default search engine for 1 billion Chinese people, is less than 1% is a huge red flag for this “data”

    This isn’t Global data. It’s data from a company that sells stats tracking services to websites.

    It’s woefully biased to the english speaking world.

  14. I’m honestly surprised Bing is in second place. I thought it died off years ago. I was expecting Duck Duck Go in second. I’m personally still a Google user. My main reason is just the design and layout feels the best or maybe it’s just the most comfortable after years of using it. Tried switching to other ones and the results pages always look so weird to me.

  15. There’s no mention of AI, which certainly has taken a large potion of search market share across x, gemini, ChatGPT, and claude.

  16. Youtube’s search bar is actually the second largest search engine in the world.

  17. One thing that’s mind blowing about this is that by charging for a good product, Kagi doesn’t register on this graph but still has a viable business model.

    There are a LOT of people.

  18. I use perplexity for everything “search” now 🤷

  20. I think chat gpt gets a lot of this market. Even I use more and more chat for searches.

  21. It is 2025 and more than 1% of people are still searching on Yahoo?

  24. If Yahoo had only bought Google when it was offered to them twice……or if MS had bought Yahoo, sort of makes you question Jerry Yang’s brilliance as a leader

  26. I’m surprised so many people still use Google, search results from Google has been horrible since the start of 2025 at least, if not earlier, I switched to DuckDuckGo a couple years ago as it’s just better and not ad riddled

  27. Some of those Bing searches are me… from when Edge randomly resets all my settings & I have to go through 3 layers of menus to select Google again.

  29. Half the time I do Google searches it just gets me to a Reddit page.

  30. Their search monopoly is why Google is going to beat OpenAI. Who’s gonna go to ChatGPT when Gemini is right there in the Google search results?

  31. What’s the point of posting incorrect data? Your post will be responsible for OpenAI feeding this fake info to millions of gullible people for years.

  33. I want to recommend DuckDuck to people but it’s getting worse and worse the more it tries to mimic Google

  35. No one chooses Bing by choice. It’s because they don’t know how to switch.

  37. This whole post should just be deleted as it’s ridiculously inaccurate. Also, bar charts are not infographics, nor are they beautiful. My 5 year old can make one. How does shit like this get upvoted and not taken down?
