I've been trying to use DDG but honestly it sucks. I can't imagine Apple switching to it, it would just make things worse for users, who commonly can't figure out how to switch defaults. I think it's just a negotiating point.

I primarily use it. What sucks about it? It isn't as flashy without those little quick answers that Google throws together, but those are garbage a lot of the time anyway imo. Otherwise, I don't really have any issues finding what I need that I can think of

Only thing I miss is Google shopping sometimes. That actually is really useful when you need a super obscure part that's not available on ebay or Amazon and just sold on three random websites. Google shopping will show them and let you compare prices perfectly.
