DDG claim otherwise https://duck.co/help/results/sources https://duck.co/help/results/sources
DuckDuckGo gets its results from over four hundred sources. These include hundreds of vertical sources delivering niche Instant Answers, DuckDuckBot (our crawler) and crowd-sourced sites (like Wikipedia, stored in our answer indexes). We also of course have more traditional links in the search results, which we also source from a variety of partners, including Oath (formerly Yahoo) and Bing.
- bla2 8y agoThat links "more than 400 sources" to https://duck.co/ia https://duck.co/ia which in turn links to https://docs.duckduckhack.com/#improve-a-live-instant-answer https://docs.duckduckhack.com/#improve-a-live-instant-answer saying "DuckDuckHack is in Maintenance Mode". But https://docs.duckduckhack.com/welcome/how-ias-work.html https://docs.duckduckhack.com/welcome/how-ias-work.html suggests that these sources are for things displayed at the top, which I see super rarely. Yahoo gets their search results from bing, so that's the same thing. So this supports my claim.
