  I use DDG on my mobile device now. I switched when Google started showing images in the omnibox as I typed in search terms. I found it useless and distracting but (of course) Google knew better and didn't offer any way to disable it. Generally I'm pretty happy with DDG results and don't feel the need to switch back to Google. I have seen a lot of scam ads on DDG which I've reported but never received a response to. The new Apple map integration seems to work pretty well even though I'm on Android.

  I'd wish DDG would either provide their own email service or create a front-end for your choice of mail providers (i.e. iCloud, Protonmail, etc). I'd love to move away from everything Google (further support a company who is pro-consumer) to a company in which i trust and whose business model/ethos is privacy.

    I just want Duckduckgo browser on desktop. Obviously its just chromium with a "delete history" shortcut built in, but the way their mobile browser inverts the way you think about privacy really helps. It inverts your browsing experience from "We will save all your cookies, history and data unless you clear it" to "We will delete your cookies and history constantly all the time unless you specify the websites you want to have your stuff saved on."
