ddg image search is superior to Google's though.

I’m kidddddding I’m kidding!

You’ve once again reminded me to properly catalog my comparison searches. Only one I could find in my screenshots:

I start with !ddgi but more than half the time hit it with a !gi bang to go over to the Alphabet Adware Image search. I swear I’m gonna catalog this stuff and then maybe it’ll be apparent:

  • I do weird searches
  • Google is search bubbling me even when I’m private browsing
  • I'm misperceiving the frequency at which DDG image searches actually fail me

Or maybe my use cases are fairly normal and Goog really is superior, TBD!
