If you use ddg you can redirect any search to google by adding a space ans !g to the end of the search term.
Annoyingly, but works on the cases where google does better.
Lots of other places too (13.5k of them), they're called '!bangs'. !w Wikipedia !r spezit etc.
Full list here https://duckduckgo.com/bangs
I love ddg's bangs for me who mainly uses it for media its so nice being able to !yt whatever i want to search for, vs going to the site and doing it
