Both Meta and Google have said they would remove Canadian news from their platforms to avoid having to compensate the news outlets.

        As much as I like to use duckduckgo, it’s still lacking when searching relevant stuff. But Google is annoying with it’s link redirect thing.

          You can use bangs on ddg to use other search engines through duckduckgo. So !g <search terms> would do a google search.

          Honestly, I switched to ddg as soon as Google rolled out amp, and found that it was better than google at finding relevant results

          People always say DDG search isn’t good but I never have any trouble. Can you give me an example?

            I can’t give you one right away but usually when I switch to ddg as default, looking for examples say coding/stack exchange, or specific trobule shooting usually google’s result list is better.

            If you are really specific terms and there are only a couple available, then there is less difference.

            Ddg would have improved so we can’t really compare then and now.
