I live in a country which uses a language I don’t speak but Google defaults to regional results in spite of my language being set to English. All other engines give me really poor results (not that Google was giving good ones, the image search has really gone to shit since they started populating it with AI stuff).
DuckDuckGo is using bing as source for their search results the same way startpage.com is using Google as source.
Is it the same way? I thought sp was just a google search proxy, DDG does their own ranking and filtering on the Bing API. Does SP do that as well?
