DDG search is garbage, I'm sorry... Whenever I switch to a browser that defaults to it, I'm reminded why I always switch it back to Google (unfortunately). Even Yandex is better, and that's prob Russian spyware.

there's startpage which is a Google wrapper if you're interested

Actually just tried this for the first time yesterday after switching to librewolf. Have only used it once, but already seems better than DDG.

I have previously, and was not impressed. Maybe it's better now?

I've been using Startpage for the past couple of days since installing Librewolf, and I kind of like it. I like the "Visit in anonymous view" link under each result... Works to let me see reddit posts (Linux troubleshooting, etc), despite not being logged in, and being on a VPN.
