And since you won't be able to modify web pages, it will also mean the end of customization, either for looks (ie. DarkReader, Stylus), conveniance (ie. Tampermonkey) or accessibility.

The community feedback is... interesting to say the least.

Duckduckgo is a wrapper for bing? No wonder it sucks... I want to like it, but the results are usually pretty bad in comparison to Google. Takes me much longer to find what I'm looking for with DDG. :/

I'm using an anonymous browser and for me often DDG has better results than Google now. My Google-fu used to be on point but recently I can't seem to find sites that aren't SEO traps.

I have exactly the opposite experience. Google has gone to shit, and duckduckgo gets me there faster 90% of the time. Plus the results are short and concise, or immediately helpful.

The SEO of the internet has really fucked googles algorithm. At least with duckduckgo I can end the search with !g to switch to google if I need a second go, but you cannot !d in google.

Startpage might be something for you, mixed bag though but I got nothing of substance to say against it.
