Speedy, too.  <\/p>\n<p>Of course it lacks Google&#8217;s useful filters for Creative Commons and image-size, but CC can be approximated in DuckDuckGo by adding the keywords <em>Commons<\/em> and <em>Attribution<\/em> to one&#8217;s search &mdash; and DuckDuckGo doesn&#8217;t seem to distort such a search by also trying to finding synonyms.  <\/p>\n<p>Nor does adding the word <em>commons<\/em> mean that it get confused into searching for pictures of the &#8216;heather and hawks&#8217; type of natural heathland <em>commons<\/em>.  <\/p>\n<p>Such an approximation of CC appears to work quite well.  And in such cases (&#8216;find large-size CC images&#8217;) DuckDuckGo doesn&#8217;t appear to have a major handicap compared to Google, since both search engines seem to cover the same mega-services such as Wikipedia and DeviantArt etc. <\/p>\n<p>Flickr is a special case, since the relevant keywords aren&#8217;t there &mdash; one would do better to use <a href=\"https:\/\/search.creativecommons.org\/\">search.creativecommons.org<\/a> for a thorough CC Flickr search.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/jurn.link\/jurnsearch\/2015\/09\/duckduck.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/jurn.link\/jurnsearch\/2015\/09\/duckduck.jpg\" alt=\"duckduck\" width=\"460\" height=\"295\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13468\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DuckDuckGo&#8217;s Image Search is now a very pleasant experience in terms of relevancy ranking, a year after introduction of the &hellip;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/jurn.link\/jurnsearch\/index.php\/2015\/09\/20\/duckduckgo-image-search\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13467","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-jurn-tips-and-tricks"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jurn.link\/jurnsearch\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13467","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jurn.link\/jurnsearch\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jurn.link\/jurnsearch\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jurn.link\/jurnsearch\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jurn.link\/jurnsearch\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13467"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/jurn.link\/jurnsearch\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13467\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jurn.link\/jurnsearch\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13467"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jurn.link\/jurnsearch\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13467"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jurn.link\/jurnsearch\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13467"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
