I noticed this for a longer time but I just thought MSN flooded the web with its shit. It didn’t came to my mind it is actually duckduckgo trying to shove these msn links into my face…

I guess this is similar to google amp links, just stealing the content of other websites.

It annoys me big time, -msn doesn’t seem to help

      This is the answer. Might be a (new?) part of their agreement

      I still like DDG and recommend it. But I also recently switched to Kagi, a paid search engine, and have been quite happy.

        Kagi seems kind of expensive. $5 a month is pretty high compared to the costs of other subscriptions and that doesn’t even get you unlimited searches. I am definitely interested in this idea but I can’t see the value being there at the prices offered.

        Search something on duckduckgo and then refresh, it will list a different order of results. Very annoying if you check multiple links to not know which ones were in what order.

        DDG has been hot garbage for a while since Bing jacked up their prices.
