Interesting, I remember a lot of people switching from Google and even seeing billboard ads for DDG. Even Ecosia, the site I use myself, is just returning Bing results (which are somewhat less ideologically curated compared to Google results). I don't like Bing either (Microsoft are a criminal enterprise). Has anyone used another search engine to recommend for privacy and good social values?

      yeah, bangs are super useful and a reason to use ddg even if it's not ideologically superior to other search engines

      I've kinda given up on the idea of a search engine that doesn't have a parasitic relationship with its users, just give me whatever is the easiest to search with the best results
