I've been using DDG for the last year and pretty happy with it
Hell yeah. I consider myself privacy paranoid and have been using DuckDuckGo for 5 years without any problems so far. It is pretty strict about its privacy policy.
Yes, it's good, however you need to be more specific with your query for DDG to return good result.
If you're interested in other privacy respecting search engines, there's Searxng and Kagi (paid).
AFAIK, most indexes ddg uses come from bing. So it's not really a search engine with its own indexes on its own. I'd suggest using SearX, and if one is willing to sacrifice a bit of privacy over some data and stats gathering, then SearxNG.
