Thank you, I'be been using ddg for last 3 years as default in my phone and pc and its been awesome, dont need google anymore.

I use ddg as my daily driver for about 3 years as well. I do find that searching things like exact error messages from programs are a bit better with !g, but almost all other searches are comparable or better.

Please change the search results so that when I search "X + reddit" all of the search results are reddit, not just the first two.

Actually, now that you mention it, maybe that's my problem with SO searches I called out in another post. Maybe they've got some kind of same-source limit that becomes a major hindrance when you expect most results to be from a single source. I almost never get more than two SO links for a search on DDG, and very often neither is what I need—Google gives me a bunch more, and usually at least one is helpful. And it hadn't occurred to me, but I often end up tossing in a "!g" to reddit searches for a similar reason: not enough results are from Reddit, on DDG. (yes, I could probably do some kind of "site:reddit.com" or something, but "!g" is faster to type and gets the job done)

Have you been using the new button we put there to do that? (I realize you still have to press the button, but curious if you are liking it.)

what button? I must be blind...

This would be very useful because "x reddit" is probably my most common search

Sorry, looks like this new feature is being re-tooled today, but should be up again within a few days!

I personally just use "X site:reddit.com". It's more verbose, but it does what you want.

EDIT: There's also a !bang that does the same thing: !ddgr

what's wrong with site:reddit.com $search1 $search2 ?

If you are not a Bing frontend, do you think it would be please possible to unblock our Fortran webpage at fortran-lang.org?

See here for details:

https://fortran-lang.discourse.group/t/fortran-lang-no-longe...

Bing decided to remove it for some reason and DDG now also removes it from search results, presumably because it uses Bing underneath. For Google it's #1 page when you search "fortran".

Yes, I'll look into it.

Thank you, we really appreciate it!

Why did you remove the page that showed your historical traffic?

This seems incredible to me. The raw results are obviously very close. I get the same results in the same order for searching 'uefi hack':

https://duckduckgo.com/?q=uefi+hack https://www.bing.com/search?q=uefi+hack

And the exclusion filters fail identically, on "uefi hack -bootkit": https://duckduckgo.com/?q=uefi+hack+-bootkit https://www.bing.com/search?q=uefi+hack+-bootkit

And partially succeed identically: 'uefi hack "absolute computrace"': https://duckduckgo.com/?q=uefi+hack+%22absolute+computrace%2... https://www.bing.com/search?q=uefi+hack+%22absolute+computra...

The only differences seem to be the suggestions, infoboxes and similar "value adds."

Reading between the lines it sounds like they are only using their own crawlers and other partners for things like widgets, while all their regular search results are still just Bing.

I was going to say that if the two search engines index and rank in a similar way, you would expect the search to be similar. But, for the `uefi hack` search, the results really are pretty close to identical, and when I do the same search on Kagi and Google, I get different results. I still don't know if it proves anything, but it's a little suspicious.
