Tech people will change browsers, search engines, and SaaS tools without much thought. The average person learns something and sticks with it for a very long time. Bing is playing a long game.
There are a lot of examples of things people in tech bubbles think that have little relevance in the real world: That Google can’t be trusted, that everyone wants laptops with upgradable RAM and phones with swappable batteries, that desktop websites should take priority over mobile, that offline apps are preferred over cloud apps. Spend some time in product management and you realize that tech people’s demands are unique.
Even the claimed demands of tech bubble people often fail to materialize into sales. Just look at all the demand for mini iPhones in tech bubbles compared to how little they actually sold.
