For me, the killer feature is DDG's solid keyboard navigation of search results. Google's never worked properly and they eventually removed it.

It did work very well for me, at least for a typical search. Ctrl+T, <type search in already focused textbox>, Enter, Down arrow a few times, Enter.

There is a lot of value to me in this, the user, but actually negative to google: you can't really justify inserting ads into keyboard navigation, can you.

and "copy link" actually works as it should on DDG - it does not become a google link.

I just discovered that ' [single quote/apostrophe] opens the selected result (from navigating up/down using j/k or arrow keys) in a new tab.

If someone is using the duck for privacy, I should hope they're not using Google's Chrome and Chrome store.

Vimium also works in FF. I am using it right now.
