I do the same. My default search is DDG and that's usually enough and I don't even realize that I'm using a different search engine. Sometimes I have to tag a !g at the end of my search if I'm having trouble finding what I need and that's totally fine with me.

Though, considering I use GMail and google owns everything about my phone and searches there, I'm not sure if using DDG has any effect on my personal privacy beyond giving them traffic and legitimizing them.
