So. I’ve been using startpage for a while and was wondering if it were better over DuckDuckGo ?

DuckDuckGo is generally considered the more private of the two. And StartPage had some shady issues a while back, but I can't for the life of me remember what they were...

Whatever nebulous issues one or the other may or may not have had, my personal experience is that startpage (from my understanding, basically privacy'd google) provides higher quality search results than DDG (fmu, basically privacy'd bing).
