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

The best I've found is Mojeek. The results take some getting used to because we're all used to Google's fuckery, but I've been using it for months, and it's quite good.
There's also SearXNG, though I'm not sure if that fits your needs. A couple public instances I've liked are:
Random SearX Redirector – basically just that, sends your search to a random working SearXNG instance
Permanently Deleted
This is super rad! I've never heard of this, so thanks for sharing.
I really enjoy Mojeek. It gives you results you would not get anywhere else. I see high value in that
Yeah, it reminds me of the old search engines in the 90s. I've come to love it.
Thanks for the shoutout, it's always much-appreciated. If you're looking to test new things/ help us out in other ways, we're testing a new algo :D
Nice, I'll try it out, thanks!
Coming back half a year later to see this comment. Thank you for thank link. I would love to help out!
It's not currently got something live on it to test (you can use it but it should be the same results across both). If you wanna help out then let us know how you find Mojeek via this survey please!!!! https://blocksurvey.io/mojeek-user-survey-2024-mJmJ2bBcQDy9QtByOmJX7A?v=o
