How easy of a time would you have using the web without a search engine? Do you feel the same way about Duckduckgo?

I use DDG as my primary, and my general feeling is that I don't mind some advertising to make money, but Google is objectively bad these days. At the time I started using DDG, Google was still probably the better choice in terms of search results. These days, DDG is competitive, but more importantly, I don't have to scroll past half a page of ads masquerading as results.
