            If it does was you need it to do you should definitely use it, privacy vise it’s obviously way better than google. Haven’t tried in in about 2 years, maybe the search results got better but the last time I tried it often presented me weird sites that technically contained the words I searched for but were completely irrelevant - entered the same question onto Google and immediately got me a stack overflow question that was practically the same question I had but phrased a bit differently. But as I said, maybe it’s no longer so bad as when I tried it.

              For a long time I used DuckDuckGo for everything except specific error messages, because Google was better at those, but Google got more shitty and so did stack overflow, so I don’t bother much with Google anymore.
