Now that I'm trying it again, it actually is similar to Google's results but it filters some of the more useful results I get from Google based on some things I'm searching up.

We have more broadly incorporated Microsoft Bing into our results, using a unique solution specifically fitted to our privacy promise. Our collaboration with Microsoft also has enabled us to provide a superior mobile experience. You will see benefits like better search suggestions, fewer ads, and greatly improved similar image results, among others.
