That's an advantage. Since google tuned up their engine to treat authoritative results as better their searches became absolute dogshit.
You search for a very specific thing and all the results are big sites that have said something that contains two of the 6 words you search for in a completely generic article that helps you none.
My favorite is when your query contains a word that is the very essence of what you search for and google chooses to display results without it so you have to do extra click "yes I actually want to search for what I said I want to search for".
It seems DDG is worse at finding the more authoritative sites about a subject compared to Google.
