Ddg have AI and its bad. Startpage still being a google API. I consider SP because you can run it completly without javascript

You can turn the AI off. And it's not bad at all. I find it quiet useful sometimes. Plus, it's private.

Can't you run ddg without javascript, on their plain html version?
