What's your preferred alternative? I use DuckDuckGo, and it's... OK. I still often switch over to Google when I'm having a hard time finding relevant results on DDG.

SearXNG. It's a meta-search aggregator, you can use any public instance (the config is all in-browser) or host your own for kind of extra privacy.

It seems to depend on the type of search. For ordinary information, I'm using DuckDuckGo. For shopping, I go to Google, but the results aren't great. I'm undecided for serious research.
