To be fair someone that uses DDG most likely already has ublock origin.

[–] Tattorack@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Can confirm. I use DuckDuck Go and uBlock.

Thing is, searching with DDG takes time to get used to, as it doesn't work the same way as Google. Google uses a lot of convenient algorithms that are also a double edged sword.

uBlock or uBlock Origin?

[–] Tattorack@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Eh... Um... Know what? Probably should've guessed that there would be a uBlock Not-The-Origin if there is a uBlock Origin.

Yeah, I meant uBlock Origin.
