Duckduckgo. Iwas a huge fan of google for a very long time. Iswitched to ddg when google was still a better search engine. Today ddg is far better. I playedwith startpage. Haven't tried the others.

Startpage is to slow, Qwant no (https://netzpolitik.org/2022/digitale-raeuberpistole-der-absturz-der-suchmaschine-qwant-und-ihres-gruenders/) and DDG also no.

Digitale Räuberpistole: Der Absturz der Suchmaschine Qwant und ihres Gründers

Eric Leandri schrieb sich bei der Suchmaschine Qwant Privatsphäre und europäische Souveränität auf die Fahnen - und wurde dafür von der Politik gehätschelt. Nun hat Qwant Finanzprobleme und der ehemalige Chef betreibt eine Überwachungsfirma.

Yes, I know — sorry! I was too quick to send, here comes the edited version:

Several instances of SearXNG, https://searx.space, a SearX fork called Monocles, https://monocles.eu, MetaGer, https://metager.org, and the independent engine Mojeek, https://www.mojeek.com

StartPage is partly owned by System1. This company is a data broker, if I am correct. There are good articles. restoreprivacy says it is up to you to decide. I just think you should know about this ongoing debate and make a picture for yourself. Just be cautious ​:02think2:​
Before switching please read the articles from restoreprivacy (restoreprivacy.com/startpage-system1-privacy-one-group/)

and StartPages statement: www.startpage.com/privacy-please/startpage-articles/startpage-and-privacy-one-group


Startpage Acquired by System1, Privacy One Group - Still Safe?

Recently there has been lots of talk about Startpage being acquired (or at least partially acquired) by a US company called Privacy One Group, which is a division of System1, a “data science” company that specializes in targeted advertising.

I am using #Startpage because it sends search requests from the client using the POST method. Do you know of any other search engines with this feature?

Brave Search is the only free private search engine that can challenge Google when it comes to search results.Brave has its own index that doesn't depend on Google or Microsoft Bing.
