I've been using ddg from about 9 months, I live in India and it seems to give pretty accurate information and the search results are pretty up to date exactly what I'd expect (most of the times), where it kinda trails behind is Maps, if I search for a specific place, it uses Apple Maps (I do know that Apple respects privacy and is much better in those terms). Apple Maps is basically unusable in India, it does not show any relevant information, ratings or pictures about the place, so I found myself switching to google to perform anything related to finding a place. Rest assured, one of the best private alternatives to Google. I personally use it on Brave browser on Windows/Linux and the ddg app is good enough for Android.
