Duckduckgo is a wrapper for bing? No wonder it sucks... I want to like it, but the results are usually pretty bad in comparison to Google. Takes me much longer to find what I'm looking for with DDG. :/
I'm using an anonymous browser and for me often DDG has better results than Google now. My Google-fu used to be on point but recently I can't seem to find sites that aren't SEO traps.
I have exactly the opposite experience. Google has gone to shit, and duckduckgo gets me there faster 90% of the time. Plus the results are short and concise, or immediately helpful.
The SEO of the internet has really fucked googles algorithm. At least with duckduckgo I can end the search with !g to switch to google if I need a second go, but you cannot !d in google.
Startpage might be something for you, mixed bag though but I got nothing of substance to say against it.
