What commenters say

• The search engine's column width should be increased to 100% of the screen width to improve usability on mobile devices.
• The current design, which uses a peek of the next column to indicate swipability, is intuitive and effective.
• The swiping gesture can be too sensitive on mobile devices, causing users to accidentally swipe through multiple pages.
• The search engine should allow users to switch between different search engines, such as Google and Bing.
• The design should be improved to make it clearer to users that they can swipe through columns.
• The search engine should add more features, such as the ability to display results from multiple search engines side-by-side.
• The developer should consider adding support for other websites, such as Stackoverflow and Quora.
• The search engine's default behavior of opening new tabs should be changed to allow for more intuitive navigation.
