I haven't heard of kagi, might try it out. Although it being paid might be a dealbreaker...

Meaning? Do they force you to use crypto services? In my time using them I have not encountered ads.

I am sure there is a good reason for this. I am looking for alternatives to google, and these to be the ones that pop-up most often.

RESOLVED: I used up my 100 searches in kagi pretty quickly, and the experience was really nice. I am quite anti-subscription, so I won't continue using it. I eliminated brave from my search due to the crypto stuff and whatnot. I am now using mojeek, which gave me better results over DDG when searching for niche stuff. Also I like mojeeks interface a lot more.
