Russia’s Google? Why can’t they say the name in the title…
Founder of Russia’s Google slams Russia’s Biden’s ‘barbaric’ Russia’s Spanish American War’s War.
Probably because most people from non ex-sovietic countries have no idea what a “Yandex” is, but they should still have included the name.

“Ex Soviet Union’s largest state by land mass”, not “Russia”. :P
Well… Russia’s Google is about to become Russia’s Windows
Doesn’t live in Russia apparently, so he’ll avoid defenestration.
Doesn’t live in Russia
Polonium tea it is then.
Volozh, who co-founded Yandex in 1997 and has been living in Israel since 2014, stepped down as Yandex’s CEO in June 2022 after he was sanctioned by the EU for “materially or financially” supporting Russia’s war.
Expatriation from Russia is the only way to say the truth without being assassinated. And even then, this guy is taking a huge risk.
Haha, Yandex is fucking AIDS. Take google, but 5x. And it’s a good boy doggy of the regime for the last 10+ years. Who even fucking care what this person is to say? Fuck them.
Lmao, from +3 it went to zero. Heyo, rushills, show your face.
Do you even use it?
Yes, and I avoid it unless I can’t. It’s very invasive and the last good bits of it are now hardly usable due to a striking amount of ads, tracking and enshittification. I think like I had less than 20 search queues in the last two years from their services.
I can write more about each service I liked before and why I call it AIDS if you care to read.
I wonder if you yourself use them, and why?
Ah, i didnt know it was that bad. I just rarelly use the browser now but used it a lot a few years back. i do use the mail and cloud service daily… I ended up using it because i was looking for a google alternative and yandex mail looked easier to manage than gmail to me.
I used the browser cause it felt less restricted than google… im not talking about adds but about the “guessing what you are actually looking for”
Most of the adds I get in the services i use are in russian so my head probably just goes by them cause i cant read it and they are totally not targeted cause what could i possibly buy in or from russia?.. maybe i get less adds because i live in the other end of the world?
