I ended my #Kagi subscription 11 days ago, and switched back to #DuckDuckGo. Honestly, I haven't really noticed any difference. I still found what I wanted to find, and I'm $10/month better off.

Da hat meine App doch tatsächlich 234 Tracker bei DuckDuckGo entdeckt!
Schon der Hammer! Was soll ich nur als nächstes ausprobieren? #duckduckgo
DuckDuckGo news!
Had to reset my DuckDuckGo settings to " A I off" in the early morning because the A I had somehow been turned-on. Somehow!
Check ya settings, peeps.
#duckduckgo, suggesting Russian women to date as an ad on my search only make me change my default search engine. Not clicking the ad ... #disappointing

Mein Daten-Umzug nach Europa.
#Browser sind ein Thema. #Google #Chrome ist eim NoGo und aus Europa kommt nur #Vivaldi. Den mag ich nicht. #Brave hat ein fragwürdiges Geschäftsmodell und #Firefox und dessen Forks #IronFox und #Fennec nerven mit mieser Performance umd Darstellungsfehlern.
#DuckDuckGo macht einen guten Job, auch wenn das Projekt aus dem USA stammt.

@pierostrada brilliant thanks.
It's really wild that #meta were hacking #android via #chrome to run malware against #google policy and that when caught out their response was just "Oh did we misinterpret the policy? We'll "pause"!
Tips : use #Firefox or the #duckduckgo browser (or safari). [Not recommending brave for other reasons] use websites not apps where poss. Uninstall Meta apps!
@stefanmuelller nutz' stattdessen ne brauchbare Siche wie #DuckDuckGo, https://clew.se oder @monocles / #monoclesSearch (https://monocles.eu)
#DuckDuckGo is falling apart, too.
How do I get search results like the ones we had in 2006?
I'm currently experiencing some issues with DuckDuckGo. It seems to be offline or otherwise unreachable from my end. I've tried pinging the service, but it's not responding.
Has anyone else noticed this issue or is it just on my side?
"DÉGAFAMISER" ma vie! #dépendance
Je quitte les #GAFAM partout ou je peux. Bye #Facebook #META , #Google, etc...
Mon courriel est désormais sur #Proton @protonprivacy (ainsi que d'autres de leurs services), Ex: j'utilise @mozilla ( duo Firefox + #DuckDuckGo ) Aucun choix n'est parfait, j'assume ceux là pour le moment. Je suis sur #Signal @signalapp mais difficile d'y rapatrier mes proches.

I recently switched from #DuckDuckGo to the #Lite version, and it's so refreshing to just have search results.
No distractions, no real layout, just the results.
Plus you can integrate it into #Firefox / #LibreWolf or whatever as a default search on the context menu.
Haven't used the big "G" for years, and can't understand why people still do.
What Android browser is everyone using? #DuckDuckGo seems to have introduced an AI assistant to it's search engine, so looking to move on again
Too tired to check if I may have missed something, but the latest #duckduckgo updates may have broken typing in PWA for me.

Sigh. Search for information about configuring #Wireguard on #FreeBSD. Second result on #DuckDuckGo is a slop web site, which initially looks plausible but then runs a bunch of configuration commands that don't exist on FreeBSD. It does make up plausible output from the FreeBSD equivalents of those commands though!
I wonder how much of the productivity gains of using GenAI are simply slightly offsetting the productivity loses that come from everyone else using it.
