# Trying Duck duck go....

i think for most of us, Google is like the default place to search anything....And also because of the tight integration with everything.....  
since school or college days, it’s just a habit to open Google.  
and honestly, it works great, that’s why we never think about trying something else.  
but sometime i see... half of the first page looks like sponsored or personalized stuff....sometimes i just want normal, clean results.  
so a few days back, i tried DuckDuckGo....  
i heard about it before, used it a little long time ago but not seriously.  
this time i explored it properly, and honestly, i liked it.  
the whole experience feels lighter not that much personalized tracking, more control over privacy if we think from a search engine point of view.  
and the results feel more natural,...not like they’re trying to sell you something...  
i also checked their AI part surprisingly decent! Duck AI and instant AI suggestions like Google.  
not super fancy like Google’s, but works well for quick answers.  
it even gives region-wise options sometimes, and the interface feels simple and clean....  
i won’t say it’s perfect or better than Google in everything,  
but after a long time, i actually enjoyed using a different search engine.....
