DuckDuckGo Removes Search Term Syntax, leaving only the 'site:' search filter.
It restored: https://github.com/duckduckgo/duckduckgo-help-pages/commit/82c121b9a8ffa8b4ae635d4f50e26ebf4a16140b
- DuckDuckGo disables every search operator (minus, plus, quotes) except for the -site filter
-
DuckDuckGo removed the ability to filter search results
Link: duckduckgo / duckduckgo-help-pages
There is also a (related, I assume) PR to remove the search syntax page from being published entirely[1]. It's dated December, so it may be fair to assume this has all just been documentation-publishing that hasn't been done yet, as others have posited.

- What is DDGs syntax?
-
Exclude Keyword from Search
When I tried just now again on a different machine, it no longer seems to work. I also found this commit on the help page which I think is where references to the other operators were removed and it's dated for march 3rd, so I think it might be that either the search site was cached somehow or it was not yet updated, which could explain why there was inconsistent behavior between users.

DuckDuckGo browser now blocks all third-party Microsoft trackers
That's a bit of a stretch. One instance of a tracker being enabled contractually, and has been openly communicated on their website since February 2020. That's hardly their "business" now. The fact people choose not to read the information available to them and then complain when they find out later isn't DDG's problem.
- DuckDuckGo caught giving Microsoft permission for trackers despite strong privacy reputation
