I gotta say I'm pretty good finding stuff, but i swear Google makes it more complicated for me. In DDGO I only need to change words, in Google I need to filter out half the results to get something human.
But that was when I used to use DDGO, I now self-host SearXNG and only use DDGO for simple searches and when using my phone.
I guess Google needs constant use to give something better(?, which would be another reason for me not to use it hehe
