I’m still on my Bing diet from Google but they’d be an easy recommend if the search didn’t suck ass. I’m not saying Google is that good either, equally bad on most cases, but from time to time I still need Google’s help because they’re getting me closer to what I want than Bing.
But sure, focus on spammy, intrusive ads straight in the OS. Fucking idiots. I don’t understand how they think they’ll win that war without improving the product. I hate the AI as well because I can’t trust it.
DuckDuckGo is Bing though. But I agree, search results are absolutely fine compared to Google, and they don’t have the stupid spam nonsense that Bing has.
Nope, they aren’t. At least not just. DuckDuckGo uses Bing among about 400 other sources like Yandex, Wolfram Alpha, Yahoo! Search BOSS and even their own webcrawler. On top of that, they filter out and downrank content mills, pages with too much advertising and websites deemed to have low journalistic standards.
So is literally bringing together the search results from all the sources and filtering out the garbage.
And on top of that, they have way less ads and tracking than either Google or Bing
According to Wikipedia Bing is only part of the results: “DuckDuckGo’s results are a compilation of “over 400” sources according to itself, including Bing, Yahoo! Search BOSS, Wolfram Alpha, Yandex, and its own web crawler (the DuckDuckBot); but none from Google.”
Anytime they talk about using “AI” at my job it’s in some way that is completely unnecessary and seems to actually make the product shittier. And no, it’s not Bing.

I can only recommend you try DuckDuckGo. In my experience, 99% of time, the search results are much, much better than either Google or Bing.
God bless duckduckgo.
Amen.

Sure. But I’d be surprised if Bing wasn’t the primary source. Regardless, the results are pretty good, and I don’t mind the ads it uses.
