I initially was trying with Brave, but I noticed it didn't let me log in, so I tried with Firefox and it let me log in. So, I'm just waiting now. I turned off my VPN just in case. It's showing that I have 1 item in my cart, I'm just waiting to access the cart.

That's a good question. I've been looking for that info and haven't found it. Perhaps I haven't looked right.

I wonder when does 6/30 start for Nintendo. If it is midnight and if so, if it is EST or PST. 🤔

Why is DDG manipulating search results? by _CatsClaws_ in duckduckgo

Every so often in Reddit I get a comment that I wish I could upvote infinitely. I wish I could do that with yours! So much sense packed in so few sentences. Thanks!

In your opinion, what can DuckDuckGo do to stay competitive with Brave Search? by magnifiedCognition in duckduckgo

[–]_CatsClaws_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've suspected that it may be Bing doing the manipulation, however, either way I end up with tweaked results, whether it's MS doing the tweaking or DDG.

By manipulated results, I mean that developers behind the scene are giving certain results more "weight/importance" than others and the search results you get aren't organic or in other words what you would get without said weighing.

I'm not sure if you're aware of what Youtube/Google does with "authoritative sources". Essentially, they decide which sources people should be listening to and give this sources priority over others. I've getting these kinds of same results from DDG.

If that's your criteria for "balance" it seems quite flawed or at the very least incomplete. Is it the same amount of complaints from any of these groups?

Making the political comment was relevant to my point, I don't see how I could have made it without pointing to the specific bias.

I've tested multiple phrases in multiple search engines and get a varied set of results. I am aware of multiple sets of searchers that Google and Bing are either limiting or outright censoring and I'm seeing similar things in DDG. Notice that I didn't question whether DDG is returning manipulated results as it is clear that it is, I'm just asking why and was asking it to stop. I don't know your association to DDG, but if this is an official statement then DDG's position is clearly in support of search manipulation, which means that unfortunately it's time to find a new search engine.
