Apparently, there is an issue with the warning request to disable the ad blocker
I use Fennec F-Droid and Cromite, and I don’t see this issue.
to get around the adblocker warning, use this link.

Okay, I get it. So do you propose that we simply don’t trust any company, or do you especially mistrust DDG? If you specifically mistrust DDG, do you have a good alternative?
If you mistrust companies in general: I get where you’re coming from, but I also think it’s highly impractical to distrust basically everyone on the Internet because you have to use their services at some point.
I wouldn’t use DDG’s Android app, though, because it doesn’t block Microsoft trackers. Now we can debate whether this means the app doesn’t block MS trackers on MS websites or if it allows tracking on its own website (which would contradict the claim I cited above).
My proposition is to avoid making it seem that a provider is trustworthy when it isn’t.
Trusting a provider because you have to use one (and not because they are actually trustworthy) doesn’t seem appropriate. Either use it while knowing they’re not trustworthy, or don’t.
There’s a lack of good options right now to my knowledge. It seems that startpage may be a viable option, although I’ve heard it pulls from Google’s search results. Though if it doesn’t have Google’s trackers I would still see that as a better option.
