I've been trying to use DDG but honestly it sucks. I can't imagine Apple switching to it, it would just make things worse for users, who commonly can't figure out how to switch defaults. I think it's just a negotiating point.

Don't agree.

I switched from Google quite recently, as I knew it was hard...

But now I'm mostly not using !g unless for few cache: searches or when I want use few features (sport results, without going to specific websites).

You've to use some search syntax items more as + but otherwise it's quite good and clear to read.
