And DuckDuckGo lacks basic stuff such as keyword exclusion. (It's my main search engine for the last few years after Startpage got bought, but lacking keyword exclusion sucks!)
you can -something , but it isn't full exclusion. It's generally been good enough for me. I agree the full fat version would be nice.
So far I haven't had any luck with -something "soft" exclusions either.
Yea I bailed after they nerfed exclusions and whatnot but not like the others are slam dunks
