- worble 6y agoThe offshoot from this as well is: go to someone elses PC and do a query in google. You might find the results are just nowhere near what you want or expect. Or tell someone to google something while on a call and click the 1st or 2nd link. You might be lucky and they're the same as yours, but more than likely than not they won't be. DDG on the other hand, so long as I make the same query within a given timeframe, I'm relatively certain to get the same results back, regardless of which browser profile or PC I'm on. That reliability is (at least to me) a feature, and a damned useful one at that.
