    A good start that allows you to pin/ban sites from search results, order by least ad trackers, search the small web, and more:

    https://kagi.com/

    Its paid, which can be seen as ridiculous but for me it helps me be confident im not the product.

        Well in which case you probably won’t believe me but I’ve been using Kagi for a while and am extremely happy with it… no link with the company at all other than a very satisfied user 🤷🏻‍♂️

        You can improve Google a bit using ublacklist but it still wasn’t anywhere as good as Kagi.

        I will say Kagi isn’t as good when it comes to looking for local businesses or services… I still use Google for that but you can do that within Kagi with a !g and it anonymises the search
