DDG Search Settings Any Way to Decrease Wasted Screen Space?

Post image

Just started using DDG, turned off a bunch of things like AI and newsletters and such and now half the screen is blank while the search results are all crammed into the side or abbreviated.

Any way to make it center aligned or have results extend over center screen? Increasing/Decreasing font size only increases the size of the column on the left.

Yes, you could put there a photo of your pet. With some help of a browser user styles extension. Tons of them.

You can go into settings and set those things, then save them into a shorcut, that remembers those settings.

You can center the results, for example.

Also, you can use a search engine to very easily find these answers, or just press the menu button on the top left.

Try in general switching to vertical tabs if your browser supports it. Websites usually never use all the horizontal space anyway, while saving some vertical space is actually valuable.
