Exactly my thoughts.
DuckDuckGo (plus AI) enjoys default search engine status on a lot of browsers, and many of them make it difficult to set a custom one (like NoAI). Especially mobile browsers, and apparently even Safari makes it a pain.
(Edited to clarify what I meant by default)
Settings > Search > Search Engine > DuckDuckGo
(Firefox) Settings > Search > Default Search engine > Add search engine or select one of the offered ones
Idk about Chrome and the other Chrorium based ones but should be as simple, if not, then you should first think about using a better browser
