DGG lets you disable ads in the settings: https://duckduckgo.com/settings#general

But the main difference is that DGG chooses ads based only on search term, as opposed to tracking you and collecting your data across the entire net.

so iow, less relevant ads that are more likely to just get in the way and not be a product I want
The service has to monetize somehow? Unobtrusive, non-retargeted aren’t a dealbreaker by any means for me, and I loathe the ads industry in general
