A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Yeah, I tried for a long time to use DuckDuckGo, but honestly the results are worse than Google, even given the present day enshittified state of Google search. And it eventually just became too annoying.
I use DDG and what solved the problem for me are the "bangs". Not satisfied with the results? Add !g or !b to try another search engine.
Want to look at up at wikipedia? add !wiki? google scholar? !gsc . Super convenient, so I don't really care that much anymore how crap the search engine is because I can use ddg as a searching "hub".
