Trying Duck duck go....

i think for most of us, Google is like the default place to search anything....And also because of the tight integration with everything.....
since school or college days, it’s just a habit to open Google.
and honestly, it works great, that’s why we never think about trying something else.
but sometime i see... half of the first page looks like sponsored or personalized stuff....sometimes i just want normal, clean results.
so a few days back, i tried DuckDuckGo....
i heard about it before, used it a little long time ago but not seriously.
this time i explored it properly, and honestly, i liked it.
the whole experience feels lighter not that much personalized tracking, more control over privacy if we think from a search engine point of view.
and the results feel more natural,...not like they’re trying to sell you something...
i also checked their AI part surprisingly decent! Duck AI and instant AI suggestions like Google.
not super fancy like Google’s, but works well for quick answers.
it even gives region-wise options sometimes, and the interface feels simple and clean....
i won’t say it’s perfect or better than Google in everything,
but after a long time, i actually enjoyed using a different search engine.....
