I've been hearing a surprising amount about Duck Duck Go the past week or so. I don't know if it has to do with the end of year/beginning of year and tech, but it hasn't just been on Steemit. This has been one of the better write ups about why people should be making the switch off of Google to anything else, and why DDG is the best alternative.

What's sad is that ages ago, which actually isn't that long ago, there were a lot of search engines, like you mentioned. It used to be that we'd cross-check through a few of them to see who had what information, rather than just trust that just one place had all of the information. It's so weird now to think that there's entire generations who don't realise that this isn't how things always were, and that it's not necessarily a good thing.

Thanks for the reminder. I'm in the process of trying to find something other than Chrome (again)/Google because of crashes that plays nicely with all sites (which has me going through a few of your posts).
