I just started using Duck Duck Go. Political searches, such as finding the Navarro Report, is made purposely difficult by Go@gle/Bang because the Big Media / Big Tech partnership is out to destroy President Trump.

DDG took me right to the Navarro Report and cut down the biased filter preventing me from finding it.

I am also impressed that DDG keeps the good business search of the other engines.

If you have a small industry information business and you depend on search engines to draw people to your site (without paying them), it nice to know that DDG preserves the good aspects of what Bang and Go@gle do in filtering out irrelevant sites from those with solid, authoritative information.

Pleasantly surprised that DDG put my site at a high position for a new research report I just published. In fact, DDG has my site higher in its search than others probably because the other engines are getting greater advertising dollars. So this gives me hope that DDG is on the road to becoming a full fledged quality search engine.

I began using DuckDuckGo in about the early 2000a IIRC. For my professional work, it had then and has now very effective and a wide range power in ferreting out technical and business information. Consumer and personal interest information is also effectively located.

My first experiences were with Google. Tracking issues were not on my mind at that time but I increasingly became irritated at having to dig through a mountain of useless links, especially when it became obvious to me I was having to sift out paid for links that were top of the list.

Dogpile was the first search engine that I gave a trial and
It became my go-to for a year or two. Then I gave DuckDuckGo a test run when it hit the net. Excellent performance and excellent privacy policy

Every new mobile device or computer I get, the first setup I do is to set DuckDuckGo as the default search engine and for computers, use DuckDuckGo as the homepage.
