I'd like to prefer DDG...

but recently I noticed what seem to be blind spots on many (maybe less popular?) topics. e.g. I can't find how to setup/configure borgbackup on nixos via ddg for any of ~3-5 query variations I tried. For non-logged-in google with uBlock the relevant documentation is the first hit.

I used to try DDG a few years ago but eventually switched back to Google as default. Now I have it again as default since a year. Not sure when or how it happened but since a few months, I almost exclusively use DDG, switching to Google maybe once a week. Indeed that's then usually for niche topics. On the other hand I think my search and surfing behaviour also changed. I'm starting to rely more on Bookmarks again; also I'm actually reading websites again and browse through them instead of just CTRL+F-skimming through them...

I find this with specific, niche technical questions too.
