Tried to use this, primarily for its security features, but just so much else is missing. First, I have minor sight problems so the ability to change text size and font is important. But there... See more

Hype
Every search only brings up images and/or videos, not text. That’s pretty useless. The privacy marketing pitch is hype.

I've tried Duck Duck go and agree with all the negativity. I should have followed my instinct "Duck Duck go" I thought whoever thought that one up must be quackers 🤣
Worse Than google On Bias.
Maybe they do protect our information but that’s where the positive review stops. Their claim to be unbiased is a joke. I tried an experiment tonight and just searched on the word “trump”. Go ahead. Do it. Nothing comes up but negative articles by cnn, pbs, nytimes, wapo, and on and on. Nothing positive. Not one word. THAT is NOT unbiased. They are no better, in fact worse, than Google on that point.

Duck Duck Go - Total SCAMMERS
Duck Duck Go
A complete SCAM avoid avoid AVOID. at all costs. Google watches your searches yes but Duck Duck Go is alot worse and and is full of lies.
Info I haven’t asked about
Everytime I look for Trump info Trump and Harris show up. Bye DuckSuckgo. If I wanted Harris articles I would enquire about her.
Don't believe their lies
Swapped to DDG because of their privacy claims. Downloaded onto all my devices and almost immediately started getting spam and phishing emails. Crashed my laptop and phone, had to pay a professional company to remove all the trackers DDG caused which stopped my laptop and phone working. DONT BELIEVE THEIR LIES ABOUT PRIVACY AND TRACKING. THEY ARE 100% LIERS

I've been trying Duck Duck Go instead of Google, and I find that it's very very slow to load things. Very annoying and lose a lot of things I'm doing because of it. I'm going to go back to Google. Much quicker.
search results not as good as Google
search results not as good as Google, and also takes up more memory to run than Chrome on Windows 10 = Uninstalled
Tractor duckduckgo
Backstabber which sells you're database too Microsoft it turns out there just bing search under disguise so you're in the 14 eye's country's which are the worst they don't respect your privacy and they have there own agenda there biased as well not too be trusted the minute a war happens in Europe they show there true colors I just won't be using them anymore or recommending them as i rather use a alternative which I don't even need hide my search history from as they have no problem with it
I quit because of the paid responses always listed first.
I started using DDG because of the privacy claims. The problem I had, and it is why I quit using it, is the search always has the sites with paid ads first. I had to scroll through the first several responses to get to the subject I was searching. So back to Google, and my searches are cleaner.

Everything is so slow
Everything is so slow, you tube doesn't work, one of the worst browsers ever! so long!
Not impressed
To me, it's just as bad as Google when it comes to pushing what The left wants you to read. A lot of fact, checking that I don't want. I Want what I researched for. DuckDuckGo sucks!!
It was tasty & good enough
It was tasty & good enough. I was happy to $$ help :( a dying chain.
Young people were working hard. The ingredient area was near disaster.
Were older / music was loud. It was grandson's BD choice. Nice enough location with good outdoor eating area.
Sorry, they lost a star by not composting waste.

Allows increased spam
Upon installing duckduckgo I immediately stated getting a significant increase in spam mailings. After approximately two weeks was getting in excess of one hundred spam mailings a day. It is claimed to block tracking, etc. Based on my experience I doubt it. I uninstalled program and immediately reduced spam mailings to near zero.
