I used google for most of my life, for the past couple months I’ve been using brave search, but I still end up using google often because google images is far better than brave search images. I’m also worried that maybe brave search isn’t the best choice. What would you guys recommend?
I use duckduckgo. It is Bing but with more privacy. You could try also searx, swisscows, startpage or qwant
I’ve been using DDG for a while but just got hit with an AI summary finally, like Brave and then Google does. It’s such a turn off. I trust the information exactly 0%. Definitely considering just using SearXNG full time now. I liked DDG a lot but I’m so fickle, it doesn’t take much for me to swap.
does ddg not have its own search backend anymore?

My reading is that the classic search listings are coming from Bing and the the quick answer type stuff is coming from DDGs systems.
