I've been using qwant.com

They claim to not track you at all, but as we saw with duckduckgo, it may not be the case. I get good, useful results at the very least. I guess time will tell if they are being honest or not. I can confirm that they are not explicitly censoring conservative content or things relating to the plandemic.

Duckduckgo is good. The scare tactics against it are google propaganda LOL

I mean they never hid that they got their results from Bing. This is another sensational article from Techrights.

So what to use now? Any suggestions? Brave search looks like it may be private, but it doesn't return many results.

I like Qwant. It seems pretty good, and they claim to respect privacy. It's based in France.

I'm not surprised. I stopped using them when they began to hide Russian news sources after the invasion. I figured if they could waffle on political neutrality, they could waffle on privacy someday, too.
