If you look up the definition of 'bully', Duckduckgo gives you results from a 19th century dictionary

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

For me personally, nothing, apart from "I use it on other devices so I'll use it here too".
Moved from Google to DDG a few years ago, I have no reason really to move to another search as i'm satisfied with duckduckgo, but i'm eyeing Kagi.
DDG has been fast, responsive, works fine when proxied via a datacenter IP (unlike other services that start throwing capchas at you), looks familiar/like Google to the untrained eye, and image search works as you'd expect. If you're coming from google, to be honest there's no reason to pick it specifically, there are a wealth of search engines to choose from.
Approaching it with google-style searches often yields shit results. My search style adjusted over time, and now I find it much better than Google for my use.
As a sidenote, I've found Searx and Yandex are better for niche/unpopular sites (especially those with user-submitted content), as well as ๐ข๐ดโโ ๏ธ.
