Today, I noticed that Google wasn’t loading on Mull (Firefox Fork). Switching useragent with the extension Chameleon makes the page load again.

      Since a few months ago I get so many AI generated blog articles as top results with ddg (a lot with google as well, but less so)

      DDG is just a Bing frontend. Using SearXNG is mostly better since you can get results from multiple sources.

        I think they use some yahoo data too and some of their own crawlers.

        Results are not always the same in bing and DDG especia

      I have a really hard time getting good local/region specific results for products, I mostly get US or UK results which are utterly useless to me since I’m not located either places. I’ve tried all sorts of shenanigans to limit the search to my area/country but it’s not really effective.
