DuckDuckGo staff here. Yes, we currently have an issue that the engineers are trying to resolve. It seems to be partial so you may or may not get search results. No ETA yet but they're working hard to get it back ASAP.<p>EDIT: Now resolved – sorry for the disruption.
Can anyone give me a reason, why the search results on ddg have become so much worse over time? Now it starts behaving like Google, as in not taking every single word I enter as relevant and showing me bad results. I enter words for a reason and I except them to appear in the search result.<p>To me it seems that ddg search has left behind the "ok we search for exactly what you entered, sort of substring like" and has gone into the camp of "oh we know better what you were looking for!".<p>I need simpler search, that simply shows me results, which contain what I entered without having to prefix every single word with "+".
