i always make ddg my default... but then ill just use google for a sec and forget to change my search back to ddg and then without noticing ill be using google for the next week.

.... so my project for the weekend is to make a firefox extension that resets your search default every X hours/days.

Why not use Startpage then? It uses Google's results, but without the spying.

I think the GP meant https://startpage.com/ rather than "the startpage of your browser".
