I guess their primary userbase must now be chuds angry at Google? A few years ago, I think this probably would have ended them as a company.

They were never using DuckDuckGo for privacy cool reasons, they were mad Google was returning mean results about their big wet boy :thicc-trump:

I think they were also mad that Mob Psycho 100 was showing up in “mob” image searches.
