minus-square𝒍𝒆𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒏link2•10 months agoFully agree. We don’t even know what search query was used either, and what the criteria was used to grade seach engine. DDG’s results are perfectly fine to me - however for best results you shouldn’t structure search queries in the same way you would for Google IMO trying Google after using ddg for a couple years just shows some big weaknesses in the quality of Google’s results. Fake SEO clone sites et al ☹️
minus-squareNobsilinkfedilink1•10 months agoMaybe that’s why ddg doesnt click with me. How do i use ddg for technical questions that need some obscure forum posts from 15 years ago? I obly get stackoverflow and windows forums. Those arent helpful at all.
