Google Search Is Overrated; Try Duckduckgo.com by Nobody: 9:32am On Mar 21, 2020*

Tried searching for "reasons why remove work is challenging" and Google results was a boat-load of craps! And I decided to try DuckDuckGo.com and viola, I got the right answers!

Isn't Google living on old glory; it's time to move over to Duck.com

DuckDuckGo is only better in terms of privacy... they don't track your data other than that Google is still the best.
PS: I've been using DuckDuckGo for more than a year now

Try searching for "reasons why remove work is challenging" on both search engines and compare the results!

Lol.

There was a time DuckDuckGo was the default search engine on all my browsers, including Google Chrome, Google Chrome Canary and others.

You see, there are times I had to go back to Google after being unable to get a good result on DuckDuckGo.

The fact that you searched for a sentence on Google and DuckDuckGo and you get favourable result on DuckDuckGo and nonsense on Google does not mean Google is only better on paper.

Things goes both ways, there are times you'll use Google and will need to return to DuckDuckGo and there are times you'll use DuckDuckGo and go back to Google.

Use DuckDuckGo for a year and let's see if you won't return to Google at one point or the other to get better results.

Plus is it because you searched for a single sentence on Google but got better results on DuckDuckGo that you created this tread?

Perhaps, you don't know that DuckDuckGo index pages from Google and Bing.

From Bing, Yes! But even at that, DuckDuckGo still does present the results different from Bing!
