Whenever ddg returns shit results for me and I try !g I still get shit results, but with more ads. I've stopped trying !g since a couple of years now.

Wonder what's different, it seems people's experience differ quite a lot.

Truth is no one has as much data as Google and no one can build as good of a search engine as they can. Google results "suck" on purpose. They want you to google something multiple times so they can serve you more ads. But they are totally capable of building a good search engine

Kagi is proof of this. Kagi results are almost all the Google search API. It shows that Google is completely capable of building a better search engine if they wanted to
