- latexr 4mo agoI hadn’t looked at the settings page in ages. Some interesting stuff in there. You can even block certain websites now (goodbye, Pinterest). It’s time I give DuckDuckGo another go. As I fiddle with the options, I was about to suggest there should be a private way to share settings to another device so I don’t have to redo everything on my phone, then I looked at the right side of the page and saw you already provide that! Overall great work, major thumbs up. Looking forward to trying some searches with you again. I do think I may have found a bug. Blocked sites aren’t being set across devices, neither by using the cloud save nor the bookmarklet.
- yegg 4mo agoThanks, and thanks for the report. Will investigate.
- marssaxman 4mo agoI switched to your service something like twelve or thirteen years ago now. I spent the first year or so adding `!g` to everything, but it's been a long time since I've felt the need to bother with that. Thanks for doing what you do.
- yegg 4mo agoThanks!
- fransje26 4mo agoI've been happily using DuckDuckGo on my devices for many years. The only gripe I have is that the default maps are painful to use. On my system (Linux + Firefox), for some reason, half the time they fail to load, and need a refresh to be displayed. Also, would it be possible to add the option to specify a region for the "Shopping" tab, in the same way it can be done for search & images?
- yegg 4mo agoThanks. On the maps, is this through a VPN?
