honestly after using it for a bit, there's ai slop results in the standard search on noai-ddg that bog standard ddg with ai manually turned off will filter out. the fact they felt the need to create a disparate service just to sucker in people who won't use ai suggests 2 things to me. 1) they know people don't like ai features. 2) they don't care and want you to accept them anyway.
