This looks good. I expect their main page https://duckduckgo.com/bang https://duckduckgo.com/bang will feel overwhelming for most users if displayed this way, but this is much better for serendipitous findings - both have their place.
Is there a mobile equivalent to the hovering, to get the short description you mention?
- MichaelMoser123 5y agoThanks for the suggestion, i didn't think about it yet. The whole page isn't quite optimized for a mobile user experience. I think that i would have to add a link that brings up the help text; maybe the link should be in the form of a question mark icon, similar to what they have at https://m.xkcd.com/ https://m.xkcd.com/ what do you think? I am not much of an expert in matters if web UI/frontend, so that any advice is very much appreciated!

I had in mind a short description box opening up underneath the entry and showing the info (as part of the page flow, not floating), and for that case I had the expander arrows [1] in mind. In either case, the important thing IMO is to have enough interaction area to comfortably click on it without having to precisely hit the arrow/question mark itself.
