This is another area where DDG shines - it doesn't have a commercial relationship with Reddit, so doesn't push it in its results.

DDG's 'Search Assist' AI overviews are pretty basic but they tend to be sourced from Wikipedia and traditional media outlets rather than forums and blogs - they can be out of date, but are generally a lot less "spicy" than the sources that Google use.

I guess Google is much better-optimised for engagement but that's not what I'm looking for, meaning that DDG is a better choice for me.
