Which search engine is better?

>Startpage

Use google search, servers located in EU

>DDG

Better UI, has bangs functionality

So far I have been using DDG with the !iq bang when I haven't found the result I am looking for. What do you guys use?

Even if you're not a duck duck go privacy advocate, the bang functionality is I sexy as fuck

!Wikipedia serial over lan
!urbandictionary poo in loo
!Google what I couldn't find on ddg

Honestly DDG is phenomenal
>>
>>54896590
wasn't DDG started by a guy who had run a pretty un-privacy-respecting site in the past that profiled people from scraped info?
>>
searx.me, all you ever need

>>54896648
do you have any source for that?

FuckFuckNo is prorietary and located in the US (easy for the NSA to infiltrate). The owner previously ran a datamining company.

Haven't heard bad things about startpage, but I prefer searx since it's completely free software with shitloads of forks and also has an .onion service.

INSTALL SEARX

>>54896646
The instant answers are nice too.

DDG works perfectly for 95% of my regular searches but for very specific searches like problems with a library for a programming language I just use Google.

>>54896646
If you are not aware, !w is wikipedia, !ud is urban dictionary and !g is google

I personally quite like !aw -arch wiki !a - amazon and of course wikipedia
