    Duckduckgo is bing. They route their searches there afaik. It’s just a privacy layer, like startpage is a privacy layer on Google.

      I don’t think that’s true. They are using the index of bing, but the search results are not. At least that’s what I heard, no idea if it’s factual or not.

      Duckduckgo also has bangs, which I consider an essential feature.

      Although I use SearXNG instead, since their equivalent is a lot more customisable (although less bangs out of the box).
