Thanks for the downvotes. I need to search questions for an exam I have and I can’t do that any other way. It helps me better search the net. I am sorry, it’s good. I wish there was a FOSS alternative for it which does as good a job. So, here’s how you use Bing Chat on Firefox https://pureinfotech.com/access-bing-chat-ai-chrome-firefox/#bing_chat_firefox

I know for a fact that this will cause problems, but I don’t what kind of problems (I have experienced it once, but I rectified it by removing the settings that are mentioned above and I literally forgot about it) edit: Problem 1: Some websites won’t load (not sure if it’s related, but these websites have cloudfare “security” thing in them)

It was working until yesterday but it isn’t now. It was a really nice tool to get better searches from the internet without doing it yourself. Now, I want to know if I am doing something wrong or if MS is shutting off Bing Chat for the infidels who don’t use the holy edge browser. I remember this happening when MS first released Bing Chat. They probably let users use it on other browsers for a little while to make sure they become dependent on it.

I mean, we can modify firefox settings and make your browser look like edge, but I very vividly remember regret doing this because I faced a problem asap which was resolved by turning firefox settings back to normal (that one particular setting)

      I was using it till yesterday on Firefox. I have a lot of math questions and I can’t find answers to them if I don’t use Bing Chat. Unfortunately there is no FOSS alternative which can do this. I hear Mozilla is developing one, but I doubt if it would be able to hold a candle to Bing Chat

      thank you! I need it constantly, so I ain’t gonna install it, but yeah, I can see this being useful for others

      turns out I need it too. Some websites ain’t working well after I switched

    Bing Chat is available only in Microsoft Edge. If your decision is to throw away your privacy and keep using Bing Chat, use Edge.
