I use DDG, and I know that among the various search engines that it uses (according to Wikipedia) “... are a compilation of “over 400” sources, including Yahoo! Search BOSS, Wolfram Alpha, Bing, Yandex, its own web crawler (the DuckDuckBot) and others.”

If all or most of those sources are, themselves, biased and censored via their algorithms like Google is, then so will be the DDG results - with the only benefit being the privacy in your searches that they promise.

What’s the old saying, you can squeeze blood out of a turnip. The scripted media is not allowing anything to be published that does not fit the narrative and search engines are only gonna pull from what is being published.

If 99% of what is published is negative, then I would expect that 99% of the results will be as well. Just my opinion.
