i haven't used their search in ages. ddg is good enough and doesn't flood you with ads instead of actual results. still not as good as Google used to be once upon a time, but I'll take 80-90% quality over the garbage that is Google search.

but I'm also considering switching to kagi

DuckDuckGo is a meta-search engine and is mainly depended on results from Bing and Yahoo! actually.

In fact, not that long ago Bing was down, causing ddg also being unavailable, so that says enough.
