Technically they are both “search engines” rather than browsers. But from my experience now with using UnGoogle it is more “on topic” and detailed with results just as Google used to be. It takes advantage of goggle’s very extensive raw data base, as does DDG, but eliminates the controlled algorithms that steer your search. I am actually getting better results than I do with Duck Duck Go because there are no sponsor links added to and injected into the results that sometimes steer it off topic from what I am actually looking for.
Thanks for the info - I saved the link to “play” with it.
