Been using ddg for years and my use of !g has reduced considerably because it doesn’t result in better (but often worse) results.
Google stopped being an innovative company many years ago.
They’re in their Ballmer era. They’ll hopefully get a Nadella soon but not before it gets worse.
- bhrgunatha 4y agoAnnoyingly ddg also ignores +<must include> -<must exclude> and "verbatim" search terms and just shows the results they decide you must want. There are no good search engines any more. At least ddg still has bang searches.
