I like the little tools like this that DuckDuckGo has. A couple others:

  • "color picker"
  • "base64 encode your_text_here" (and "base64 decode encoded_string_here" as well)
  • "json formatter"

    You can type "qr url" and have it done in one step. However, unlike your two-step process that most likely just fetches results for the common "qr code" query from cache, this loads their servers unnecessarily. The same can be achieved in Firefox by bookmarking "https://qr.15c.me/qr.html#%s" (or a local copy of tiny-qr.html) and settting its keyword (not to be confused with tags) to "qr".

    I think a lot of people turned against DDG when they started pushing their AI generated results really hard. Seems like DDG is going all in on AI. I have started paying for Waterfox's search engine myself, after using DDG exclusively for years.
