[QUOTE=Greenen72;35688514]As long as they implement the same functionality/keep the old servers running, I'm fine with this.

Fucking [I]google[/I]. Yandex for some reason draws a lot of visitors to my website.

I agree with a few people in here. If Yandex isn't better than Google, then it's just too bad. Google is very good, and popular too (for a 'few' reasons). Personally I don't use Google, I'm a DuckDuckGo user myself, but I have to say that despite Google not being very open, it still usually gets people what they want.

"google chrome makes it harder to use our browser" =/= "google is attempting to destroy a competitor" funny how he never explains what he means by making it harder to use yandex, I can't imagine that chrome actually stops users from accessing it

[QUOTE=PowerBall v1;35686574]But then, what else can you expect of the FP hivemind. It's like 1984 in here sometimes.[/QUOTE] [I]in here[/I] I was refering to the state of mind of a large part of the FP userbase. In large part the younger demographic I would think, all too eager to adapt popular opinions without critical thinking.
[QUOTE=Uber|nooB;35686848]oh yeah well maybe russians should learn to speak english so they don't [I]need[/I] results in russian[/QUOTE] You know, many Russians are able to speak at least basic English, but it's much easier to search for results in your native language. Nobody's forcing you to search for results in Spanish, so why disrupt millions of others in the same way?

It's futile to compete with Google.
[QUOTE=a-k-t-w;35691028]yes because the first few posts represent facepunch as a whole.[/QUOTE] Pretty much.
