- _tom_ 5y agoGoogle is way better at some classes of searches, still.
- michaellee8 5y agoFor example duckduckgo produce nothing useful when you search Chinese keywords. DDG maybe good at doing English searches but Google obviously have much more resources.

- yepthatsreality 5y agoI was wondering when you’d get here!
- nofinator 5y agoAgreed. But in those cases where I don't like DDG results, I like how I can add "!g" to the end of my search and it redirects the search to Google.
- schleck8 5y agoUse whoogle then https://github.com/benbusby/whoogle-search https://github.com/benbusby/whoogle-search
- mastazi 5y agoAMP is also used in other places e.g. any external links in Twitter when visited on mobile (IIRC)
- nabaraz 5y agoI use Google because i) it displays stock price right on the search page. ii) it does match right on the search page. If DuckDuckGo did smarter results like this, I'd quit Google. Heck I'd even throw in a few bucks.

- JoshTriplett 5y ago> I use Google because i) it displays stock price right on the search page. So does DuckDuckGo; here's a screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/6nCNGZk https://imgur.com/a/6nCNGZk > ii) it does match right on the search page. What do you mean by "match" here?
- nabaraz 5y agoGoogle displays a chart with 1d-1m-ytd etc tabs as well. > match meant to say math.
- NoblePublius 5y agoI have a new laptop on which I set DDG as default and have been tracking myself resorting to Google 50% of the time due to poor results.
- wayneftw 5y agoIf you still want to use Google, you can request the desktop site too. No amp links. I don't know how much longer that will continue to work though. Many sites ignore it and show the mobile version anyway.
