I understood they were referring to the search bar in Windows 11 which I use every day at work. I am saying that feature is redundant since everyone has internet search in the browser. In Linux we have also have DE widgets that provide the same internet search functionality in the taskbar or a popup triggered with a keyboard combo. The Plasma Search plugin framework for KDE is way more powerful and configurable than Windows 11 search.

The Plasma web search plugin includes ~100 search engines / services OOTB.
