those bangs are really a nice feature. my most often used bang in 2020 unfortunately still remains !g for every time I search something that is related to finding solutions for code / software engineering (or copy paste a problem line from syslog etc). ddg is in almost every case not showing me the most relevant result I want.

I gave up on DDG after giving it a go for a year or so ... I don't know if Google prioritises Stack Overflow or what, but that's what I'm after, most of the time, and DDG just doesn't give me that.

Try Runnaroo.

Stack Overflow search results are directly included on the SERP (in addition to organic web results) for programming queries. Plus the privacy aspect.

Example for "python string match": https://www.runnaroo.com/search?term=python%20string%20match
