I used to have to put !g (redirect to Google) on like half my searches to get the results I wanted. These days, I actually generally prefer DDG's results over Google's.
Same, especially on image searches... but Google's quality has plummeted to a point Bing is better... how the mighty has fallen.
Many tests have proven that Bing is the best search engine for porn. They know their target audience.
I use DDG too. When I redirect to google using !g it's usually out of desperation and it gives me the same bad results in a slightly different order.
I use this on my phone. It's gotten pretty great!
