The only trace left from Google in my life is search. No, DDG is unfortunately nowhere near Google Search.

The day I could replace that too, I'll try my best not to touch a Google product ever again.

I'm not saying it will fully replace google, but I find startpage.com to be much better than DDG, and I am leaning back on google search less and less

Seconded on Startpage. Bing refuses to index one of my sites for some reason, and it's a legit site. Makes me wonder what else they're ignoring. And poor DDG is using Bing results.

Startpage uses Google results.

Well, any alternative to Google is always welcome to try; I'll check it out.

FYI startpage got bought by an ad tech company.

I switched from DDG to You.com

Search results are great + additional features for developers
