As a Chinese, I can tell you why, because Baidu Search has too many advertisements, and Tencent acquired Sogou Search last year, so people don't want to use Baidu Search.
Me too. I know Microsoft are meant to be the evil empire but I find their search engine gives me more of the right kind of thing than Google does these days.
Confirm that comrade! I'm google searcher, but yandex typically brings more valid results with better resolution. Probably yandex also doesn't give a f about CR while google does, and it helps in some way

Google won because it is the best, hands down. But til today it has yet to be improved on some points like digging out less obsolete messages from hi-tech forums.
Does “Users” = Monthly Active Users? Also we’re seeing a verticalization of search so it would be interesting to see added search engines like Amazon and also Taobao & WeChat in China.

Interesting how in 2020 people returned to “comfort food” search engines. Lots left the competition and went (albeit briefly) back to Bing and Google.

Btw yandex is really good for reverse image search
Confirm that comrade! I'm google searcher, but yandex typically brings more valid results with better resolution. Probably yandex also doesn't give a f about CR while google does, and it helps in some way
Google is so high because it comes as the automatic search engine in Android and iOS and nobody cares to change it.
Bing also because it is default with edge on windows. Would be close to 0 if that wasn’t the case lol
yandex's reverse image search is way better than googles
surprisingly, it is true
Altavista always has special place in my heart
Altavista was the way to go in 90:s and early 2000 for me at least
Im sad that Ecosia didn't make it on the list
Lol, Webcrawler and Excite, I miss those days......
The U.S government search engine is still number one and the chinese search engine is second and Russian search engine is third
Google has really blown up
Are u surprised ? it’s literally the default search engine on iOS and Android 😂 ur a fool if ur surprised
Duck Duck Go is gonna climb. Super sad to see Yahoo fall like it has
Which search engine does Arnold Schwarzenegger use? . . . Alta Vista baby!!
Once upon a time, google was behind yahoo and msn (former of bing)
Used to use Alta Vista and Northern Light back in the 90s. Nowadays I use Duck Duck Go and Brave search.
Where in the world is your data from? Is it only in the USA?
given that Baidu, a Chinese search engine that only Chinese Chinesemen from China using Chinese computers while living in China use, is on the list - no, its worldwide.
