I'm finding the results are not helpful as they used to be and sometimes way past the topic I'm searching. This is very prevalent when I'm searching for pirate sites. I'm falling back to Searxng whenever this occurs.

Has anyone noticed it too? Has DDG upped their moderation?

I'm seeing way more ads at the top(at the top 5 of the search) related to the keyword I'm typing. For eg, if I am searching for a movie pirate website I would get ad results at the top which are paid like Netflix, Amazon Prime etc and no results related to the pirate site I'm searching. This is not how it used to be. I used to find those sites at the top 3 resuls. It was convenient.

Yes duck assist is great and I like Duck ai as well.

just change search results to be located in Greece and you won't have any ads
