For me it was the straw that broke the camel's back. When this change went live I decided to switch to DDG and it's been a great experience. Search results are, in my opinion, more relevant and generally of better quality. I wish I would have switched sooner!
- nostromo 7y agoI'm in the exact same boat. To be honest, for a long time I'd role my eyes at the DDG users in every thread, talking about how it's hey, pretty good now. Well, now I'm that guy, because I think it's actually better than Google now. It looks crisper, cleaner, has way fewer ads, and does less fuzzing of my actual search terms. I love it -- I'm hooked.
- philistine 7y agoMe too! I get less junky websites in the results.
- kitsune_ 7y agoSame here. I wonder whether the backtracking is just due to the criticism or whether they have measured an actual impact on their numbers.
- pb7 7y agoThe entirety of DDG’s traffic right now is a rounding error on Google’s traffic. I promise you they did not measure any sort of impact. That may change in the future but we are not there yet.
