What’s your opinion? Does google really “not work” anymore? Are there any better search engines? Why did the quality of search results go down? I honestly stumbled onto this question through this music video, what is ironic in it’s own way i feel…

    Yup. DDG is my go to. Every once in a while I have to use Google, but it’s rare.

    Also, buy the Wolfram Alpha app if you want math problems solved easily.

      Does anybody else find when using DDG for research that it’s waaay too aggressive about “correcting” your query to something more mundane?

            Yeah, but DDG uses Bing. I want to switch to Kagi or start a SearXNG server though once I get around to it.

              I have been using Kagi for a month. Really liking it so far! I just subscribed to their basic plan. Much better results than DDG.
