- clubm8 8y agoIf it doesn't work the !s bang command can search with Startpage (proxied Google search)
- edraferi 8y agoEven !g does some masking for you, although you still wind up on google.com
- gutnor 8y agoI haven't been so lucky, maybe that's because of searches in the UK ? Google manages to find more locally relevant information (the most annoying one is the stuff from amazon.com instead of amazon.co.uk). You can easily turn "UK search" in DDG, but when you do it, but in turn that's less relevant for technical search. Probably will wait a few more months to give it another go.
- justfor1comment 8y agoYes, it's not good for the use case you described. That's what I intended to say with my comment on "generic searches". If you are looking for something very specific like a piece of code that resolves your OOM error or a uk seller of a xkcd hoodie then it's better to add !g to your search.
