any good resources for learning how to effectively use DDG?

  https://duckduckgo.com/bang.html https://duckduckgo.com/bang.html all of the boolean and ':' filters from google work also.

  https://duck.co/help/features https://duck.co/help/features seems to be a good starting point, since it has links to the bang syntax(e.g. '!gh junit', '!a sicp'), instant answers('4 euros in €') and more. I learned most of the things I use today by experimenting and trying some bang-keywords I considered feasible before actually checking DDG documentation.

  Why is kermitdance's reply to this post dead now?

    I still see my reply when I'm logged in, I noticed it disappeared from public view after I tried to edit it... [edit] I had included the features-link again and this reply was hidden. [edit2] Still hidden... HN doesn't like me

    Probably because they used a url shortener.
