Time to ditch #duckduckgo
(lemmy.world)
In the last couple of months I have noticed an increasing trend of supplying me search results that are completely unrelated to the current query and tie back to my location or previous searches. I can say this with a high degree of certainty this is without a doubt beyond the 100th instance this has happened.
My browser is configured against tracking and fingerprinting (in fact all my devices are) which would make it fairly difficult to retain any data unless they are profiling me.
Same here. Every time I ditch Google and go to ddg, I just laugh how irrelevant all the results are and I continue feeding Google with personal data and telemetry and whatnot.
It is true that even Google's results feel much worse than before but it's still significantly better than ddg.
Not for me – if DDG is trash, Google is actually unusable.
Me neither. Even Bing is better than google nowadays.
Also, when it comes to piracy, google basically blocks every relevant result.
