I love DDG but the problem is that google is still the best whenever I want to search something that's not in English or that's localized. So I still use google for that.

I use DDG when I want nonlocalized results that aren't as biased

But most times I want information tailored specific to my issues so google is better for me 90% of the time.

Try Yandex if it is available in your language.

Hmm, I get pretty good DDG search results in Japanese. I assume you're searching in your target language, rather than search terms in English with the name of your desired language tacked on?

To be fair, DDG is actually quite decent in Japanese but when searching in French I find that it's often lacking. I think it's mostly that French is not dissimilar enough from English for the search engine to pick up on it sometimes.

It might also have something to do with more French speakers knowing English than Japanese speakers knowing English.
