    If the description provided by the article is accurate, and it remains so in the near future, that won’t be an issue for DDG users. All that DDG would need to do is to pull the results out of the side panel, instead of the central space.

  I like how Kagi does it.
  You can have it appear only when ending the search terms with a question mark

  I’ve only ever know people to use Bing for porn (or because their workplace forces it on them). There are people who actually choose it?

      As an ex-bing user they also basically pay you in the form of rewards

    My workplace also forces me to do all my porn searches on Bing.

  genuinely asking… how do you ever find relevant results on duckduckgo? I’ve tried switching to it many times over the years but i just get too frustrated by its lack of intuitiveness.

    I don’t know, it just works for me.

    I use duckduckgo exclusively. It happens that I occasionally switch to Google (which is btw very easy with “!g”) but that pretty much never solves my problem.

    I’ve only had a handful of searches that didn’t find what I was looking for, and about half of those weren’t any better on Google.

    Bing got really good really recently, and since DDG is to a large extent a frontend for Bing presumably it recently got really good
