Ask HN: Do you [bang]g as much as I do?

I love DuckDuckGo but I can't help but notice how much I seem to need to slip across to Google by using !g. The results over there are [sadly] so much better for many things, and much as I want a privacy focused search, sometimes you just need to find stuff...

Does everyone else find this, or have any tips for getting better results out of DDG? And: has anyone come across any evidence from DDG showing the percentage of !g searches they receive?
