I'm not bombarded by fifteen different ads, who are all trying to pretend like search results?

The results are hit or miss...I probably !g about half my queries. But the other half are entirely pleasant experiences and I'm hopeful DDG continues to get better.

The ads on the Google result page are probably better links than most of the organic results. People who pay for traffic usually make the payoff worthwhile.

Nonsense. All three ads on the Google page are to thin domains with little more than a contact form to harvest your info and spam you to death.
