Who still uses Google in 2023
What do you use? Bing? Yahoo?

Is it any good? I haven't used it in ages. Last time I used it was a few years ago, and it kept returning bad results.
I've been using DDG pretty much exclusively for the past couple years now, so yes it works just fine. If you want to see what another search engine would have shown you, you can use a "bang" , and search wikipedia or reddit for example. Pretty useful !
Holy shit bangs are amazing. I'll need to add this to my daily use. Consciously remind myself to do it until it becomes habit. Thanks!
I've never heard of this, but if you want to see that other search engine's results consistently, there's no advantage to this is there?
