Unduck

DuckDuckGo's bang redirects are too slow. Add the following URL as a custom search engine to your browser. Enables all of DuckDuckGo's bangs to work, but much faster.

https://unduck.abunchofknowitalls.com?q=%s

How is it that much faster?

DuckDuckGo does their redirects server side. Their DNS is...not always great. Result is that it often takes ages.

I solved this by doing all of the work client side. Once you've went to https://unduck.abunchofknowitalls.com once, the JS is all cache'd and will never need to be downloaded again. Your device does the redirects, not me.

Docker

Build the image:

docker build -t unduck .

Run the container:

docker run --rm -p 8080:8080 unduck

The app will then be available at http://localhost:8080.
