Show HN: I Was Unlucky – DuckDuckGo to Google Fallback Firefox Extension
3 points by lkiss 2340 days ago
I think a lot of people from our community has the same experience as me. I tried using DuckDuckGo as my primary search platform a few times due to privacy concerns, but I always went back to Google because I wasn't satisfied with the results sometimes.

To solve this issue, I created a tiny Firefox addon which adds a new button to my DDG search page called "I was unlucky" and if you click on that button, it redirects you to Google with the same search query. I found it very useful.

I know you can do the same with appending "!g" to the query, but that's much more effort. :)
