DuckDuckGo page description is gibberish

[mary896]

Hi,  I've recently switched all of my personal browsing to DuckDuckGo (for obvious reasons) and did a search for my store's Weebly website....it displays total gibberish.  It just has random words pulled from the 'Welcome' page all mixed up together as the 'description' of my website.  It's bad.  So, how do I fix this?  Thank you.

I'm frustrated that no one has answered my inquiry! Grrr.

bobafett....thanks for your snark. I asked a question based on the fact that my website's browser description is part of the Weebly editing service. That service is not working for DDG. Therefore, I ASK a QUESTION.

@mary8961   the browsers  take what they want from where ever on your page.   even on Chrome....   the  info given in the search results differ between mobile and desktop

all u can do is do the WEEBLY seo correctly   and then the rest is down to the server as to what they use...   no one can change what the borwser shows..

Thank you for replying Whitemonkey.  Huh.  Well, Chrome displays my store's description exactly as entered in the editor.  It doesn't take random words from a page and jumble them up into a stew like DDC.  I can't believe how little control we have anymore....I started my online company well over 20 years ago and used to have almost total control over how everything displayed and how everything worked and images could be easily tagged and colors could be changed and fonts were endless, etc.  I feel powerless these days and Weebly (Square) has NOT helped.

@mary8961 You didn't like my answer, and perhaps you are frustrated.  However, no one from weebly can help you.  It is the browser issue.  As @whitemonkey had pointed out eebly just sends the data and instructions to your browser - they send that crap within  the established /standard/conventions.  Then it is the browser's job to re-arrange that data and display them.  If it was me, I would find that browser's forum and pose the question over there.
