If you are here you probably know DuckDuckGo and think it is the greatest search engine (If you don't here is why).
However sometimes, of course due to the lack of trackers and stuff, DuckDuckGo search engine fails to deliver the correct result. That's what TryGoogle is for, it will add your DuckDuckGo search result page a "TryGoogle" link. Click on it and it will recreate your query using the google search engine.
Also, in order for your google search to be a little more private, TryGoogle will add noopener, nofollow and noreferrer attributes to the query. This will prevent google from knowing where you came from.
You can install it directly to your browser (Currently only supporting mozilla) from the Mozilla Add-ons store
In Firefox: Open the about:debugging page, click "This Firefox" (in newer versions of Firefox), click "Load Temporary Add-on", then select any file in your extension's directory.
