Get a better search result by using
https://lite.duckduckgo.com/lite
Instead of
"Lite” version of the DuckDuckGo page that loads results much faster - only UI elements on-screen are the search bar and a DuckDuckGo logo—all ads and other images have been stripped away from results
@b4cks4w yeah on my Chromebook I have lite version and original version set as search engines with shortcuts via chrome settings - search engines - then via address bar I can ddg [tab] for original ddg or lddg [tab] for lite version input query [enter] get result
On mobile in certain browsers i have lite ddg set as default search engine others i use original ddg
@ecksmc on mobile ddg is my default browser. I used ff until the big redesign some years ago. Should probably try Focus
@b4cks4w never been a fan of ddg browser
I have several browsers on mobile Firefox focus is the one I use for opening links from SM sites mainly its fast and reliable and wipes everything once closed - Cromite is another good privacy focused browser with loads of extra settings like set proxy - ad block lists - add custom filter lists - "sec-GPC" setting controls right to opt-out of selling/sharing of data(only states under CCPA & CPRA though) and more
Sidenote; on android use URL check

That way you can click a link from within apps and pick what browser you wanna open link in
Set URL check as default browser - it has some neat modules also to keep you safe
@ecksmc huh. I never load their web page, just hit Ctrl-K and search terms
