What search engine do you recommend that isn't Google or Bing? - eviltoast

I’m still trying to de-Google my life, little by little. I don’t trust Bing for similar reasons. DDG is feeling shady of late. What’s the search engine you all recommend that I can inject into my daily life? Is there perhaps a search engine that is focused on code, or have we just all moved on to AI for searching?

Edit: I meant to also express my frustration that most browsers do not let you select a “default search engine” that can be used in the address bar aside from 3-5 pre-chosen engines. Seems like 2023 we should be able to customize that to our own liking.

Edit 2: Thanks for the recommendation of Kagi. I’m going to roll with it for a while. I see they have an extension for Safari that allows them to hijack the address bar, which is just what I needed.

    If you’re not spending some money then you’re not the customer, you’re the product.

    • BSD (e.g. FreeBSD, OpenBSD, …)
    • GNU/Linux (e.g. kernel, Ubuntu, Mint, Arch, …)
    • GNU/FSF/FOSS software (e.g. LibreOffice, Vim, Emacs, , Compiler Collection, Gnome & KDE desktop, GIMP, VLC, Wine, Python, …)
    • Misc. (e.g. Wikipedia (& Kiwix), Gutenberg (& Calibre), Archive.org, CreativeCommons,org, OpenStreetMap, Lemmy, R, …)
    • Plenty of public schools, public library, charities, …

    Would like to argue with you. However, supporting these projects directly, if you can afford to, is something of a personal responsibility.
