Quite sure Qwant does, but DDG does appear to have their own unique results.
For your convenience:
https://www.google.com/search?q=keris
https://duckduckgo.com/?q=keris
https://www.bing.com/search?q=keris
Try "what is my ip" and you will see that DDG displays 207.46.13.131 in the cached snippets, which is Microsoft Bingbot and also the same IP that Bing shows in their cached snippets.

DDG has their own crawler, but they augment results using Yandex and perhaps Bing too.

I remember reading that it uses only Bing for web results and their crawler for Wikipedia only.

I know they (at least used to) use some results from Yandex
I’ve been using the web since the best option was Yahoo’s hand curated directories. Google is in really serious trouble. These search engine switches happen very quickly, as soon as one of them is showing better results, the switch happens abruptly and it’s one way.
