It's garbage outside of the US for local results. Bing is somewhat better, but still not good enough. In the US though, plenty of good alternatives to Google search
DDG is only garbage for not personalised search results.
Which is kind of the point in a privacy driven search engine.
DDG literally has a search filter to search only websites belonging to a certain country.
Sincerely, a Belgian DDG user who has been using it exclusively for the last 6 years.
I'm outside the US and I've been using DDG exclusively on every device for about 5 years now. It's excellent.
No problems in the UK
I'm outside US (Philippines), most searches are local as long as your country is set on DDG settings. I've been using DDG since 2021 and it's refreshing that I actually searching with my actual query, instead of "click the first, random result" and call it a day.
