We compete with Github. Bing does not show our website.

Codeium, a free alternative to GitHub Copilot, is experiencing visibility issues on Bing despite being indexed and having a clear sitemap, unlike its stronger presence on other search engines like Google and Baidu. The company suspects that Microsoft's search algorithm might unintentionally favor its own services, as Microsoft's platforms appear more prominently on Bing compared to other search engines where non-Microsoft services rank higher. Codeium has investigated potential reasons for its lower ranking, including sitemap submission and adherence to Bing's Webmaster Guidelines, but has found no clear answers. The company speculates, somewhat humorously, that the issue may relate to their competition with Microsoft's GitHub, although they acknowledge this is unlikely. Ultimately, their goal remains to introduce as many software engineers as possible to their generative AI tool, and they express some hope that the shift toward generative AI in search results might eventually benefit their visibility.
