The problem is that there is really no great alternative to Googles search. Most of the other ones use Bing in the backend, which ends up being Microsoft. If anybody knows of a good search engine, which works well and is none commercial that would be great.

Google results for me have been shittier and shittier over time.

I use duckduckgo mostly now. if you set your localization right it feels like you can actually find stuff again.

DuckDuckGo is ultimately just Bing though, which is what MrMakabar is complaining about
