    Unfortunately, still Google, with Bing a distant second. I’ve realised at least half of my searches are locale-specific, and engines like DDG are so American-centric. This is even with letting DDG use accurate location data. Reading the options here and hoping to find something I’ve not heard before that’ll work and hopefully replace Google as my main search engine.

      If you are in Europe, Qwant is a decent alternative. There are also alternatives like Ecosia and Startpage that use Google or Bing behind the scenes but limit how much they can track you.

        Not in Europe, so don’t think that’ll work. Probably have to use something like what you said.
