For what it's worth, I switched to DDG some time ago, and it took some time to get accustomed to, but I know find most of its results to be better than the ones of Google. Maybe except for one search or two that involve special chars, such as an error message. But I'm impressed, overall. Plus, it's not completely unlike Google with the resources it had a few years back.

What do you need to get accustomed to? Is there anything that you'd need to do different while using DDG than you'd do with Google?

Sorry, I call bullshit on this. I love DuckDuckGo and have used it as my default engine for over 5 years but the search results are consistently absolute garbage.
