the first two are ADs. says right next to them.
wu'cha browsin' nekkid for? get an ad blocker. that should be the very first thing that goes in your browser, then fix the default settings that nobody wants enabled. then go get your libreoffice and other stuff.
i like that someone maintains ublockorigin.com as a landing page for ubo with links to the appropriate addon site for your browser. makes it a little easier to get to on a new pc.
Eh... Give DDG the ad revenue?
They aren't user tracking ads, they're just contextual to the search, easily ignorable. I like whitelisting upstanding sites like that.
Okay, but then it's weird to complain that DDG is "just like other browsers" because it has ads in the place where ads go.
I just meant search, IDK anything about the browser.
I run Cromite atm.
Sorry, I misspoke. I meant it's weird to complain that it's like other search engines because it shows ads if you're deliberately enabling the ads to support them.
I think they're complaining because they don't know the context. DDG let's you turn them off really easily. If they knew about that setting it would be them literally choosing to have their results look exactly like that and complaining about it.
Ehh... No thank you. I want to have a neutral search result.
If you ignore the ads and are never clicking on them, DDG most likely doesn't get any revenue anyways.
with AdBlock the ad still loads, it's only hidden for you. Also you probably have to click one IT to create revenue for DDG
Pretty sure you can just into ddg settings and turn ads off
Duckduckgo lets you turn off adds in their settings
