I just tried DDG for the first time, and I'm blown away how good it is! Since I'm mostly using search engines for programming, I searched for "clojure filter" on DDG out of curiosity. It gave me all the relevant documentation pages BUT here is the "blown away" part - it showed me a small Clojure code snippet on the right side of the screen, explaining the usages of the "filter" with a short and concise docstring. It also worked with Kotlin and Swift! I tried the same search query with !g prefix to google it, but left rather disappointed - it's just links to the documentation. As a programmer, this is a tipping point for me to completely ditch Google.
