One of the convenient things about DDG is that if your search results aren't to your liking, it's just a few additional keystrokes to pipe your query into another search engine via bang syntax: https://duckduckgo.com/bang.html https://duckduckgo.com/bang.html I have also found DDG to be not as good for a lot of software/library/syntax related searches, and now I usually append "!g" to those queries. But those are maybe ~20-30% of my total search volume, so it's worth it to me. I think it is fair to say that making DDG your primary search engine _today_ involves some compromise of overall search quality, but that's the price of supporting an evolving product.
