I chose a random neocities website and searched with both DDG and Google. The search was “irony machine neocities” without quotes. Google yielded a result which pointed to the correct URL irony-machine.neocities.org while DDG did not.

My first duckduckgo result was a scam result site for that domain to check if it was safe, lol.
Second result was the creators website page that linked back to neocities.
The duckduck AI result at the top however was a direct link to the neocities page. Interesting.
Kagi’s results were first result was the link.
I concede though, it is hit and miss with Duckduckgo, even doing site:neocities.org

Interesting, if i do site:neocities.org with a random search term e.g.
site:neocities.org animein DDG I get zero results. In google, this yields thousands of neocities subdomains. Do you get any relevant results in DDG this way?NewNewAugustEast@lemmy.zip 5 days ago
Yeah, I see that. I must have just been lucky with my choice of search terms. I concede, its worse. The AI function shows them though, which is due to it crawling the tags? I don’t know.
I havent used google in a long time, I switched to Kagi and it works.
