the search results have slowly yet noticeably degraded

You mean Google.

And Bing, and searches that use google and Bing results (DDG, ecosia)

All of them. I use DDG as a primary and even those results are worse.

In Google Search's prime DDG was still terrible and not a viable competitor even with the privacy advantage. Now both services are almost comparable, so it's kind of a no-brainer to ditch Google.
