    Is ddg actually good now? I remember it feeling nearly useless waay back when it was first hitting the scene. Might have to give it a shot again

      I’m not a power user, but I’ve used DDG exclusively for a while now and I often forget that I’m using it. I’d say it’s a pretty seamless transition nowadays.

      You actually get the results you are looking for without the sponsored links. Sometimes you end up searching for reddit results but that’s every search engine.

      I only use Google if DDG can’t find what I’m looking for. Usually Google doesn’t either if DDG can’t so lately I’ve been giving up after the DDG results. I can’t stand Google anymore. The first page of results is just ads and the next page is all irrelevant nonsense.
