About every 6 months I try to migrate to DDG, and historically there has always been something pertaining to organic search relevancy that has lured me back to the devil’s embrace.
That said, I’m going to give it a go again. Just switched the default back to DDG.

Learn bangs!
95% of my searches, DDG is fine and I’ve learnt where it might struggle and I just end the search with !g
This then searches Google, yeah I’m still using Google for 5% of my searches but it’s better than 100%.
Or use !start to search startpage.
I had the same experience. Ecosia and ddg just didn’t give great results.
Kagi is the one that replaced Google for me. It’s pretty incredible.
Yes it’s paid. Yes it’s worth it. No, not everyone is emotionally ready to pay for search.
If DDG doesn’t work for you, try https://www.startpage.com/
I used it for several years before moving to DDG.
