I've always had a hard time switching from Google to any other search engine because the gap on quality. But since last year, Google's results are getting worse and worse but on the other hand I have found DDG to be quite satisfying. So maybe their results have changed, but for me it was for the better.
Indeed, I rarely add !g bang these days, almost never. But I do hate the censorship on DDG, you can rarely find relevant results if you search for anything Russian, or torrents or similar.
As a non-Russian I use Yandex for torrents because there's nothing better among general use search engines. Also try btdigg if you haven't.
Interesting. If you don't mind sharing, what's with the Russian search stuff? Is there anything good that's Russian Westerners might be missing out on?
