I'd say their search results have been in decline for some time now, though quality has taken a particularly big hit the past year or so. I'd switch to someone else, but I haven't found a decent alternative yet. As poor as DDG's results are, they are still a few rungs above the rubbish Google spits out.
Use Searxng. I always wanted to branch out of DDG and now this is push I needed.
I’ve always used SearXNG and I love it. The only issue that every once in a while an instance stops working and you have to switch, I imagine this isn’t an issue if you self host though
