    DDG was great, but it absolutely has gotten worse and now gives tailored results. If I search a random name I will get doctors and business people with that name in my area even with location turned off. I moved to qwant.

      Yes, the intensified focus on duckAI and the worsening of search results are concerning for DDG. With that in mind, I trust them over Google/MS/etc. It’s important to me that a search engine follows my instructions.
