duckduckgo sucks #17

Closed ineeee closed 2 years ago

ineeee commented 2 years ago

as that one bitcoin obsessed guy mentions every fucking week, the .ddg command uses duckduckgo's api which is severely limited and doesn't really return search results, so taiga's output sucks. its not very useful.

perhaps we should scrape the duckduckgo website instead?

we can scrape https://html.duckduckgo.com/html/
