Current search engine: Microsoft Bing because I current use Edge on my Windows computers.

Otherwise, on Linux I use DuckDuckGo on Mozilla Firefox though Edge is on Linux as well.

Btw DDG uses Bing so you use the same search engine.

... But DDG has additional privacy features, etc.

I am not so sure about that. DDG has been caught tracking before. I wouldn't trust them. They are also getting into AI bs.

They are also getting into AI bs.

None of their AI features compromise on user privacy and all can be disabled in settings.

Yeah who cares. They got caught tracking and that is still a fact.

Could you provide a source for this claim? Not doubting you but I haven’t seen it.

DDG have made their core product bad.

They skipped through the genuinely useful and appreciated straight to garbage features and privacy concerns waaaay quicker than firefox.
