If it was an unknown project then the name could be a problem but at this point it’s known and very easy to remember which is very good

I can’t decide whether to upvote this for the good recommendation it makes, or downvote it for the spammy YT channel “Hey Guys” and the really obvious well known nature of the whole post.

I can confirm I did not intend to put any effort at all into making it sound non-spammy and bot-like

All good. IMO, almost discussion on Lemmy is good.

Honestly, Searx is better, and you can add ddg as an engine and still maintain your privacy from them.

Can I add it to my Android browser?

Yet it can, just to set it up manually

Will work

“Hey guys”, DDG is like 15 years old already, partners with Bing, and seems to give IP location-based search results in “private” mode.
