Well, I switched to DDG after last time someone said it’s doing a much better job then Google’s now. So I’ve switched all my defaults to DDG. On the contrary, users don’t mind which search engine, as long as they give proper results efficiently.
I use Startpage. It’s anonymous like DDG, but uses Google on the back-end. Results feel more like old Google than the modern overly-personalized Google results
Huh, is this the start of a new post-platform era where we see such business models the way we now see cigarettes?

Google’s search result is honestly worse atm.
It actually is a (little) better than Google now. I don’t think it’s better enough for people to change their habits, but it is better.

Hadn’t heard of it. Looks interesting, but it’s owned by a company that
as a “Responsive Acquisition Marketing Platform.”
That got a very big eyebrow raise from me.
