I woundn't know, but would not be surprised either.  Several
non-findable posts should settle the matter.

Observe that this list is already archived at MARC, where it
shows 695 matches in all and 465 ones for 2025 alone:

Besides, MARC is much more pleasant that any search engine!

Little wonder, since DDG depends on Google.  It is not an
independent search engine.
