I've switched from DuckDuckGo to Ghostery Private search. I've been happier with the results than DDG.

I'm using SEARXNG. It's a search engine aggrigate and you can mix and match where you want your results to come from. It's like using Google from a decade ago.

Interesting. That seems a fairly heavy duty search and possibly more than most users would want to go about installing. But it's something to keep in mind if needed.

There are hosted versions you can just use without installing at home.

I'm going to bookmark that and give them a try.
