I have an opposite experience. I use predominantly DDG (mainly for UI reasons), but often the search results are much less relevant than from Google, or i got exact zero results, where Google finds plenty of instances of searched phrase.

I find Google is still really good at finding things for maps/navigation (and I contribute greatly to maps with pictures/reviews), but even that has become a problem with results of places that do not exist (and reviews from owners that say a place never existed where maps is saying)

depends on what you are searching for, but the constant attempts to trick me into useless garbage ads has destroyed reliability/my trust in their general search

some things google is still better at for sure, but the gap is closing imo
