And since you won’t be able to modify web pages, it will also mean the end of customization, either for looks (ie. DarkReader, Stylus), conveniance (ie. Tampermonkey) or accessibility.

The community feedback is… interesting to say the least.

DuckDuckGo seems, for me anyway, be crappier and crappier by the month. Am I the only one? Are there alternatives?

SearXNG and LibreX are both meta search engines, which combine results from several different search engines.

I used them for a long time before getting tired of appending !g after every search because DDG’s results were SEO garbage. I’m trying them again and they seem to be slightly better, but I’m not quite sure. Also it appears that the minus operator doesn’t work on DDG, and when I have to use it, I just do !s to search Google with Startpage (which I don’t use because it’s owned by an ad company and because its website is a little bit slower than DDG).
