Yup. DDG is my go to. Every once in a while I have to use Google, but it's rare.
Also, buy the Wolfram Alpha app if you want math problems solved easily.
Does anybody else find when using DDG for research that it's waaay too aggressive about "correcting" your query to something more mundane?
This is why I switched to startpage
Doesn't it just query Google behind the scenes, though?
Yeah, but DDG uses Bing. I want to switch to Kagi or start a SearXNG server though once I get around to it.
Huh. TIL!
I have been using Kagi for a month. Really liking it so far! I just subscribed to their basic plan. Much better results than DDG.
