So, it's simply being replaced by Microsoft Edge, which continues to advertise via Bing. Every few weeks, Windows 10 tries to get me to switch from my preferred browser to Edge, which of course I decline. Microsoft also keeps trying to get me to buy Microsoft 365, which I also decline. I stopped using IE on my PCs as soon as better alternatives like Chrome and Firefox became available. Anyway, good riddance to bad rubbish.

But Google was immediately better, as in quicker more useful results, than dogpile. And it was still a search engine. The game 'google wacking' was also fun. Trying tot get only one hit with two query words. Impossible now for several reasons, one of them being that Google is not a search engine.

I remember seeing a meme a while ago (that I can't quickly re-search), something like "Internet Explorer: The worlds #1 browser for downloading Chrome"
