Duckduckgo is growing like crazy. During 2018 it went from a daily average of 21 million searches to 31 million searches, and currently in 2019 its at almost 40 million daily searches. We are only in July and it would be fair to expect a bit over 50 million daily searches before the end of the year. More stats here:

Duckduckgo doesnt record your search history and doesnt filter your results. This should be normal on the web. But somehow we have gotten used to that every search is now recorded by Google, and every website you visit is also stored with them. To me, this is abnormal. Why should a giant american ad company be able to store records of billions of peoples private and personal web searches?
I think we basically just got used to it and figured its too hard to avoid getting tracked. But today there are really good alternatives and Duckduckgo is worth checking out. Try it as your default search engine for a couple of weeks. Its easy and now your searches are no longer tracked by Google.
Please try it: https://duckduckgo.com (and remember to set it as default search engine please).
If you dont like it, you can always go back to Google. They will be there, waiting for you to come back.
