I've recently started using a self hosted SearXNG instance but I'm still using the search engines enabled by default (google, duckduckgo and qwant). What search engines do you have enabled or which ones do you feel you've gotten the best results with?

Qwant for work and DDG for personal stuff

I am testing both for personal use right now, can you share your experience and how you came to the decision which to use for personal use and which for work?

Qwant has very similar search results to Google which I need for work. DDG is IMO more private so I use it for personal stuff.

Also Qwant has better results than DDG is languages other than English.
