Why Ecosia Will Always be Worse Than Google
When I search Google for "stayin alive lyrics", the search results page shows all of the words to the song. When I make the same search on Ecosia - an environmentally friendly alternative to Google - I see a list of links. When I Googled "How Tall is Lebron James", it told me he's 6'9" before I even clicked enter. Ecosia, again, gave me a list of links. While Google provides in-your-face answers to your questions, Ecosia requires more work to find answers. This post will explore why that is.
What is Ecosia
Ecosia is a search engine with a social mission. The majority of ad revenue goes toward reforestation efforts, and Ecosia works with organizations to plant trees. The work they have been doing is remarkable, but Ecosia has an issue that won't allow it to become the greatest search engine.
Ecosia's problem
Ecosia invests more than half of its revenue into planting trees, according to its June 2021 financial report. Green investments, advertising, and taxes make up the majority of the remaining spending. That leaves little money left to improve the search engine. Google has a much larger revenue than Ecosia, and while some of it is spent on green investments, Google also puts a great deal of money toward improving the search engine. Ecosia cannot catch up, and Google can spend a smaller fraction of its revenue to make a greater environmental impact than Ecosia. When choosing a search engine, people primarily care about getting good results, and that is an area where Google will continue to outshine Ecosia.
Ecosia couldn't be as better to google. Since, it doesn't have popularity. Neither most of the answer. Links can provide more information than the answer right through your face. You might say "But I only need the height from Lebron James" But if you need that type of information then why don't you just go to the links and read? Ecosia could be more "worse" but isn't google flawed too? They don't need to be the most greatest search engine. And it is for deforestation purposes. even if you make it your "search engine" wouldn't that mean you're trying to help the society and just try to search the things you want as possible? why would you need to debate about such childish things. "The greatest search engine" Is your opinion only. And I stand by what I say. You can like FireFox whatever search engine it is. Doesn't matter, There is more in life that is much more important to search about. There might be errors in my "paragraph" But it is only for education purposes only. Google will outshine Ecosia because it has been the original search engine and it's popular worldwide. There is no such reason to change that from ecosia. It doesn't matter what search engine you pick. It's your reasoning to choose it.
