much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
The only time I use ddg is to find conspiracy sites to add to the blocklist I maintain. All the trash rises to the top in that search engine. It's rubbish.
Tell me more...
Do you maintain the block list to avoid conspiracies or because these types of websites are riddled with nasties?
Mostly to avoid conspiracies. The intended users are people who want to protect vulnerable family members.
Another purpose is to demonstrate that the big social networks could get rid of disinformation if they wanted to - "look what 1 person can achieve, in their spare time", kinda thing.
No shit in my experience its also filled with random ad stuff and mainly companies selling you shit
