The project announced today the introduction of a new feature called “Sync & Backup,” which allows users to import bookmarks, passwords, and personal settings from other browsers to DuckDuckGo. Moreover, it enables users to move that data from one device to another or restore it on a new device in case they lose their original device.

DuckDuckGo’s announcement declares that the new feature can do the following:

Privately sync and access the bookmarks and passwords saved in your DuckDuckGo browsers – including any you’ve imported from other browsers – across multiple devices.

Back up passwords, bookmarks, and favorites in case your device is lost or damaged.

Migrate your bookmarks and passwords to a new device.

Sync your Email Protection account between devices.

All search results are bad, this isn't a ddg thing.

Sure. With google I get more that I search for. It might be bad but it works for me. Ddg does not work for me in the same way. I use just to support is them as an alternative to Google.

Ok that's fine but google's searches are shit nowadays too. In fact I'm more pissed at google because they have the talent and resources to know better.

So DDG gets my traffic even if I have to dig a bit because fuck google. Fuck them in the ass with 20 lbs of red hot industrial grade rebar.

For me they work just fine.

No they don't. You can act like they do, but you'd be lying.
