Canada’s initial retaliatory tariffs against the U.S. will remain in place despite President Donald Trump postponing 25% tariffs on many imports from Canada for a month, two senior Canadian government officials said.
Never understood the point of adding !g to DDG searches cause it literally redirects you to Google. What’s the freaking point of that? Might as well bypass the redirect and just directly search Google.
Huh ! You’re right. It seems to be startpage who do that. Good thing I never used that functionality I guess. The only thing I bang is wikipedia. Umm wait, that’s not what I meant. Lol
You use ddg for 99% of your searches, which maximizes privacy while still getting you the results you need. For the 1% where the results are piss poor, you add !g and deal with evil to get the right answer.
Yeah but it’s quicker to just select Google from the dropdown after typing in your search in Firefox’s address bar. I can only see this function being useful for people who navigate directly to the search engine’s website to search.
The US folded? Can someone send me an article about it because DDG isn’t providing
This maybe?
What is DDG?
Duckduckgo, a search engine
duckduckgo I assume
DDG’s search is really bad in my experience (not as bad as SearXNG, however). Try Mullvad Leta or Brave Search.
DDG is by default Bing. Add !g to the end of a search string and it will redirect to google.
Brave is run by a bigoted piece of shit funded by peter theil, a different piece of shit.
Mullvad leta is a proxy service that isn’t a search engine exactly but rather a proxy for google or brave search.

Because ddg proxies your request, so they don’t fingerprint your browser & IP and tag the search to you
It proxies nothing, it literally redirects your browser to Google.

Why would i type the search query out, then click and drag then click again instead of just typing 3 more characters?
It easier to type " !g" in either case.
Does anyone realize how easily our technology could be crippled by these megacorp?
