Same here. DDG is so much better. And I love that I can do !mcwiki diamond to search the minecraft wiki for "diamonds"

I ended up switching because Google changed their image search design that was just so much more difficult to browse

My problem with ddg is that I can't refine my search by excluding keywords, only by adding more. For example, it's frustrating if I'm looking to buy a product locally and half the page is Amazon results.

If I add -amazon to the query on ddg I don't get any Amazon results. Is this not the case for you?

[-] scutiger@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

It is not. It works fine for google, but not for DDG.

That is weird. I wonder why we are seeing so different behavior from ddg.
