I'm finding the results are not helpful as they used to be and sometimes way past the topic I'm searching. This is very prevalent when I'm searching for pirate sites. I'm falling back to Searxng whenever this occurs.

Has anyone noticed it too? Has DDG upped their moderation?

Yes they have. I typically use it to find pages I go to on a regular basis without 'bookmarking'. Used to find them as a first result so much that all I had to do was let the search load and hit the top link. No more. Now there are anywhere between 2 to 5 links above mine on load only passively related.
