Honestly, I've been using DuckDuckGo exclusively for a few years now, and I still don't use even half of the bangs or instant answer features. Occasionally the Wikipedia summaries are what I'm looking for, or I'll !define something. My point being, even without the power user features, it's just a great search engine for everyday use.

Same here, long time ago switched to DDG and don't have many complaints. Except, sometimes devil really is in the details: duckduckgo.com is awfully long to type on mobile and it's a tiniest bit slower than google, which is a little annoying if you use it all day long while downloading something from torrents and so on.

  For mobile, I've found ddg.gg much shorter to type than duckduckgo.com, and it redirects to the same place, so maybe that's a solution. I don't have anything for the latency, though.

    I found out, in a happy little accident, that dgg.gg also works.

    Oh, thanks. I tried ddg.com and it didn't work, so I assumed there's no short version.

  Why do you browse to it directly instead of using your browser's search bar?
