Google works and it doesn't. I use Duckduckgo, and in general it works decent. Both suck and so does brave search so I don't really have many options that I know of. I always end up searching with reddit to get any real result, as its always the same clickbaity shifty sites.
The sad part is, Google ends up being the best of all the shittyness, because whenever I search some local none of the other engines know what to do. The number of times I have to switch to Google for a address is sad.
DuckDuckGo has a button to switch to my country yet it does nothing at all...
After some browsing I found another option - whoogle which seems to be a self-hosted search engine? I didn't look into it too much but this also seems very interesting
You can also check out https://github.com/hnhx/librex I've used one of the listed sites several times and it's been acceptable.
