DuckDuckGo displays a special logo when you search for FreeBSD or OpenBSD

This reminds me of Google's don't-be-evil era, in which they would add easter eggs like this: "did you mean Emacs" if you searched for vi/vim and "did you mean Vim" if you searched for Emacs, "do a barrel roll", etc. It's a bit weird to call the internet of the late 2000s/early 2010s the "old internet", as I was already wistful for the 90s internet then, but yeah. Something charmingly old-internet about this.

All the Google examples you cite still exist.

But no new easter eggs (that I'm aware of). I think those easter eggs could only have been created in the 2000s Google culture.

The fact that they're still around doesn't really say anything about the current culture (but the lack of new ones does, somewhat).

They exist, but Google isn't adding new ones (to my knowledge). Still with us, but relics of a more fun time.

They have a ton of logos.

I think they do sports teams too.
