TommyRude Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Anyone else using? I love it. BUT - for some reason, youtube videos are no longer showing up in the threads. They were showing up until a couple of weeks ago. If I go back to Chrome, you can see the vids. Any tech folks know the answer for this?

AROIOS Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Same here, Google has become useless for many controversial political/geo-political topics. And I have a feeling that it's just a matter of time DDG gives in. Maybe they already have, just less obvious than Google. It seems Putin has less control over Yandex, than our 3-letter agencies do Google/Youtube Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o0Ampy0o Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Are you referring to the new DuckDuckGo browser regarding YT videos? I have not tried that but all of my browsers (Firefox, Chrome and Safari) are set to use DuckDuckGo as the default search engine and YT videos do show up for me. I was using Firefox almost exclusively but I have been using Chrome lately because I was having problems logging into certain accounts with Firefox. I don't like Chrome being Google and so nosey though. Thus, DuckDuckGo not Google. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K K Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 I've been using DuckDuckGo in Firefox since quite a few years and it still works just fine on my PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyberGene Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 I’ve been using DDG (as a search engine in Safari) for 5-6 years since I abandoned all Google services. (well, apparently can’t abandon YouTube. And Apple Maps is absurdly bad here in Bulgaria, so I use Waze for navigation but it’s owned by Google, so they probably still know where I am most of the time) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YouTube recently started fighting the ad-blocker plugins that remove ads in YouTube videos. This can break things with DDG too. But I tried opening the recent keytar thread in the DDG browser on my iPhone and all YT videos are fine. Do you mean the iPhone? Because they don’t have a standalone browser for desktop or any other platform as far as I know. It’s worth trying to update the app, the OS, maybe just restart? Disable browser extensions temporarily if there are any? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just downloaded the browser. I see all the YT videos embedded in posts here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
