It's 100% because of the payments. They could use DDg without issues. But to be honest Firefox uses basically rely on Google funding and that in turn allows Google to continue to monopolies search. Deal with the devil but not sure of there is a real alternative.
DDG doesn't really compare to Google search results. I can hardly find anything I'm looking for when it's pretty much always on the first page of Google
DDG sucks when it comes on regional searches or bing in particular, searches related to education is shit if you are still studying.
