DuckDuckGo is down
I use DuckDuckGo for my basic search engine on both my laptop (Ubuntu system) and iPhone 8. It does not work today - saying "There was an error displaying the search results. Please try again.", needless to say...I have tried a number of times and differed the searches to no avail. I also cleared recent cache/history. Still stuck. Searching on Chrome I see on https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40451490 that others are also experiencing this problem and do not understand it either - just a few entries
The Sun (a rather populist newspaper in UK) has an article saying it is international and happening today, 23 May 2024, suggests no fixes. (Not exactly a reliable source in my thing)
Has anyone ideas or should I just wait and use an alternative search engine meanwhile? Thanks for any help

Responce from DDG Team:
Announcement: We're currently experiencing an issue with DuckDuckGo Search that might prevent you from getting results. Thanks for your patience while we work to get it solved as quickly as possible.
Saw comments that people were having issues with Ecosia, DuckDuckGo, Bing and Qwant search engine sites. Though DDG is still having issues.
