Glad you like my site. It was fun to build. I remember bing use to have a site years ago where you would search for a term and see bing vs google results and you'd pick the one you preferred, and apparently 2/3 people preferred bing results. But I couldn't find it, so it gave me an idea to build a site but I didn't build the gamified portion.

Yeah, you're right about search results. I'm seeing more normal sites now as well. The results are not deterministic. I'm not sure whats causing it, but I saw different results for the vaccines query earlier. "Flat earth" still gives me a fair amount of flat earth content.

From the FAQ:

> For Duck Duck Go, search-compare searches the html version (e.g. duckduckgo.com/html/?q=search). The results are different than the canonical duckduckgo search, but its easier to scrape. For Google, search-compare uses the main google site (e.g. google.com/search?hl=en&q=search), but it doesn't pass any personally identifiable information
