    I’ve tried, many times over the years, to use DDG and you are 100% spot-on. I find it damn-near impossible to find what I need without some deep voodoo magic to somehow craft the perfect query. It’s been a decade+ since I’ve gone to page 2 of a Google search. Using DDG I can be 3 or 4 pages deep before maybe finding the answer. There is SOOO much irrelevant stuff to filter through.

    It sucks, I don’t want to use Google, but there doesn’t seem to be a great alternative.

      just use a !g if you don’t get what you want the first time on ddg and you’ll still get a proxied google search result.
