This is ridiculous. It's taken me a long time to switch to DuckDuckGo because when I get comfortable with something, it's really difficult for me to switch, but if they're going to totally change it (even if it appears to only be for certain search terms now), this is the last straw.

To make it worse, this is a re-search. The first time I searched the term, it asked me if I wanted an AI definition at the top of the page.

No, I want a fucking Wikipedia link. I realize it's on the page, but come on.

This is the same search on DuckDuckGo:

Startpage gives better results than DDG and without clutter.

There is a bit of clutter with the "related searches." I always find that super unhelpful, and I wish there were a setting to disable it.

It's still superior to both examples posted by OP, though.

Stopped using them when they started asking for a fucking captcha every few searches for VPN users.

I use mullvad all the time, I see the captcha only a few times a week, if at all.

Maybe they toned it down a bit, but they've already lost me.
