I use DuckDuckGo and it has become just as awful as Google. What are the alternatives? Is Brave any good?

I noticed the search results quickly going downhill a little over a year ago and it hasn't gotten any better. Initially, I thought I was just getting dumber for not being able to specify what I was looking for, but now it's driving me mad. Whatever I search for in 90% of the cases it's bullshit that floats to the top.
