Why are you using DuckDuckGo? (Instead of Google?)

  1. To prevent Filter bubble.

  2. I like their keyboard navigation (left/right/up/down keys).

  3. Their search URLs have less junk than Google's.

  4. I like the bang commands ("!g" for a Google search; "!gh" for a GitHub search; etc.).

Also note that DuckDuckGo claims to avoid tracking the users, but I personally do not care too much about that.
