minus-squareTetsuolinkfedilinkarrow-up4arrow-down1·11 months agoI use DDG and if the result is not what I’m looking for, I add !g to forward the query to Google. 80% of the times, I need to add !g because DDG is clueless. I wish I could say otherwise but Google search results are still better overall than DDG. Sure, for some specific thematics, DDG will do better. But that’s for quite niche subjects. Very surprised to see people talk about DDG like it’s at the same level or better than Google.
