As a DDG user, this article was a bit troubling. Haven't seen a rebuttal of its claims, though.

But the search results suck. I always find myself going back to Google to find what I actually need. Granted, I haven’t tried it in a few years. Is it any better now?

[–] brenomartins 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

for me, it shows almost the same than google today idk

[–] ZeroDrek 1 points 1 year ago

I’ll give it another try.

I've always been interested in this browser. I am going to have to move away from Chrome soon because of operating system things. Does it have similar functionality with things like bookmarks, tabs, password saving, etc?

Yes. It has tabs, bookmarks, and a credential manager.

It is in beta on Windows, and is fairly mature on Android, where it also includes App Tracking Protection

Here's some useful info: https://help.duckduckgo.com/duckduckgo-help-pages/privacy/web-tracking-protections/
