Been using DDG since the early release, but recently results started to get strange. A lot of relevant results are suddenly on bottom or second page while the top ones are usually content farms. I am not sure what kind of algorithm they use but rot is already visible. Unfortunately though, bing results had suddenly improved a lot recently, which is surprising as I presumed the DDG also uses content from Bing, but they also now serve their own content. I briefly also tried Qwant and the results are fairly ok ish.. The other Ecosia seems to have decided to spoil the interface design entirely and injects strange ads like the early days of google rot, so didn’t try it much. Alternatively, I am finding Brave search more tolerable with results being relevant and less content farmy. I tried Kagi a bit and results are pretty nice but it seems to degrade a bit when I search for non-technical stuff there. But they just started and given their duration in service their results are pretty awesome. P.S. Not affiliated with any of these search engines, just sharing my experience.
