It may be good for privacy, however, in the past month or so, I have noticed it is incredibly slow to display the search results.
I use DDG every day as my default search engine across desktop & mobile. It’s good but the search isn’t as helpful as Google. If you need to you can just add !g to the search terms and get redirected to Google.
I'm not familiar with bangs (things like the !g you mentioned) but if you get redirected to Google doesn't that kill your privacy because you use Google instead of DDG? Or am I just misunderstanding the whole concept of bangs?
Is DDG’s search results good, better, or about the same as Google or Bing?

I prefer using DDG or Firefox, however my device I lower end and I find that Brave works best on it.
But I use DDG for my search engine.
Its shady for many reasons... I quit using it
I read an article on tor about the problems with many "privacy respecting" search engines, including ddg, here: https://digdeeper.club/articles/search.xhtml
