Frankly, the results are bad. Always have been for me. If it's still powered by bing, that would explain it because it assumes everyone is somewhere in North America. Still beats having to deal with Google, though
The problem is even if 90% of the time the results are good enough on ddg, wondering if I'm missing out on a better result causes me to do a !g google search almost every time I'm searching for something non trivial. And doing two searches for each query gets old after a while.
I'll switch to DDG as soon as they have it.
It really doesn't. The country selector is right below the tabs (All, Images, Videos, etc). Click the toggle and select a country.
With Google, that country selector _used to_ return websites located in the specified country (now not so much), but with ddg those results are mixed up with sites from nearby countries or countries that speak the same language.
