I've been using DDG as main search engine for 3 years, results for my queries are usually on par with Google in private mode, but if you're looking for results in any other language than English or non-tech stuff it falls behind big G

That's actually my only beef with DDG.

Searches in German (and probably other languages than English too) are pretty fucking horrible.

But on English searches it's my preferred search engine. It's definitely good enough in 98% of all cases and there's always !g if everything else breaks.

So I definitely accept the language limitation. Especially since I know what to expect. The privacy focus more than balances this out.
