DuckDuckGo is my default search engine now

How is that working for you? I am thinking of switching in my quest to get out of google stuff

Not op but I'm using DDG since many years and I feel like is continuously improving.

In case you miss google or you need a different search you can simply add !g to the search and search on google from DDG (it opens a google page)

I tried that for quite a while but ultimately gave up. For many (technical or non-English) topics, I found no fitting result of my search on the first page.

Great, occasionally have to switch search engines to get certain kinds of results but that's true with Google as well
