@davecarter @BobLefridge DDG uses Bing in the background, but it hides you from Microsoft

@davecarter @BobLefridge @Mojeek Looks interesting but doesn’t seem to know about New Zealand (eg using their pizza example as a starting point, adding ‘site:.nz’ gives exactly 0 results). I will look at it again in a year or so.

@Salty @davecarter @BobLefridge this is not a properly supported operator, but if you're trying to do a site search across .nz TLDs then you want to drop the '.' a discussion of that is here: https://community.mojeek.com/t/support-tld-searches/435
