Alternative search engines

[garbon]

I have been getting annoyed with Google lately as it covers its search results with ai summaries (the overview and those similar question drop downs with ai summary).

It used to be great but feels like I need to scroll past more things to find answers.

That got me thinking as to whether there are any viable alternatives. Today I've started trying qwant which has some odd add results at top (searching pugs told me to shop for pugs on Amazon) but results after that were cleaner.

Any others that you have tried/regularly use?

I use duckduckgo on my phone and find it less annoying than google... but not so much better that I've switched on my computer.

I use Bing, as I can donate to charity for using it.

The results alsi seem less scam-financed and fewer social media posts.
