Is there any good, free search engine left? - eviltoast

Google, DuckDuckGo and Bing now all return the same shitty LLM-generated nonsense sites to most of my searches, and don’t respect my literal search terms even when I put them in quotes.

I’m not ready to pay for search, yet.

Is there any alternative?

    The other suggestions aren’t suggestions at all. They are obsoleted by searx.space

    DDG … obsolete

    startpage.com … obsolete

    Browsers have default search engines. Curse everytime, DDG is accidentally queried.

    DDG is a curse word!
