I've gone over almost completely to DDG as well, for at least the last few years, but have noticed that DDG has been ignoring required terms more often lately. But they're still better than Alphagoog.

DDG has a feedback mechanism (the almost invisible "Send Feedback" thing in the lower right corner), but I'm unsure if anyone there actually sees the feedback and cares enough to do anything about it -- as I said, the problem is getting worse over time.

And while I'm on my soapbox, I'm going to continue complaining about having to use quote pairs instead of + for required terms. That still _really_ grinds my gears.
