> DDG ultimately is just repackaged Bing search results.
That was true at one time. I've been using DDG for many years; daily drive it and Firefox, but have been experimenting with Edge and Bing, now Copilot.
Honestly, Bing search is amazing, better than google in my head-to-heads for quick reference or learning about something your not as familiar with. Both have a lot of "data field" results, which I want to curmudgeon about being distracting but are honestly quite handy sometimes, same goes for suggested searches. DDG is very old school by comparison, but that's also what I want when I'm drilling down.
An aside, I'm surprised that nobody really talks about Edge. I run Firefox specifically because I don't want to run V8. Edge has a really good implementation Tree style Tabs, another feature I refuse to sacrifice, and overall it's featureful but still fast, the only thing it's missing is never getting implemented, containers. The LLM integration though is super cool, and makes me wonder what iPhones will be like when Apple finally gets this tech in it's products.
