Not because DDG got better, but just because google got worse.

google is still better for site-specific searches, and google scholar still has minimal AI slop

The killer for me has to be that it doesn't support searching for phrases within websites I need. Latest example: github. I can be on the project page, copy a phrase from the code and search ddg with it in double quotemarks, and get 0 results. Copy - google.com - paste - enter - loads of results.

Also the search function broke for about a day, a few days ago

  • To be honest with you, I didn't even know that was a feature. (Unless I'm misunderstanding you.) Sounds cool!

    If I need to search a website, I use either Ctrl+F or the site: search engine operator.
