Google on 88.9% of search results clicked and bing on 3.056% with everyone else even less. This is not a competitive market and it seems very stable over time.

It really shows you what a bubble HN is.

Every post about Google for years has been people saying it's terrible and dead.

Kagi gets talked about on here constantly, and it's not even on the list (though I suspect there's a reason?)

Even within Google, about a year ago, everyone was saying that Google was dead because of Perplexity, which is barely a blip.

It's kind of shocking to see DuckDuckGo is only about 1%, with everything you hear and how much you hear it within certain bubbles.

It's not the same everywhere. Look at ru and cz, and note that cn and jp are missing from the list, where Google will likewise probably not be at the top.

What do you think most people use when they need a taxi now days? Humans believe the market is some kind of magical place where everyone gets a slice of the pie. This is not true, winners are a thing.

"Market share without Google" is the funniest little capsule of copium I have seen in a long time.
