Arent they trying to make their search worse so you have to search multiple times, showing you more ads?

The study found that ddg was worse than google though. But they only searched for products, so nk complete "test".

Ddg is still good for non product shit, hell sometimes if im looking up niche enough shit itll give me results with for example space battle forums.
