minus-squareAlphaOmegalinkfedilinkEnglish13•10 months agoYeah. It’s been that way for at least a decade. My dad used to use bing for reward points and was scoring an Xbox controller every 3 months or so.
minus-square@Hadriscus@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglish1•edit-210 months agoNo way ? that’s a good ratio. I might just try automating Bing searches.
minus-square@LukeMedia@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglish3•10 months agoUnfortunately a lot of people have thought the same thing, and I believe they’ve cut down on that. Wouldn’t hurt taking a brief look into it, though. However, the rewards points aren’t as valuable as they used to be, I’m pretty sure.
