Firefox does default to Google. If you see DDG, it's likely an edit by your distribution.
Also, Brave Search is a real alternative. It's one of the few engines aside from Google, Bing and Yandex that has its own crawler.
Oh yeah i forgot i used librewolf too much XD. Brave Search creeps on you. Privacy Policy is unreadable and unreachable. Tbh. if you want a privacy protecting search engine. Use Searx(ng).
I host my own instance of SearxNG, in which I enabled Brave search engine.
Good :)
