Any “small-web” search engines? (lemmy.zip)

I use Duckduckgo, but I realised these big(ish) search engines give me all the commercialised results. Duckduckgo has been going down the slope for years, but not at such a rate as Google or Bing has.

I want to have a search engine that gives me all the small blogs and personal sites.

Does something like this exist?

(almost) free from dis- and mis-informations (because, at the time of BBS and Gopher, the Internet was still being born

Yeah, no. There was tons of bullshit. I ran across a post back then saying you could get psychic powers by eating the Americium sensor in your fire detector.

Yeah, almost free. Nowadays there are LLMs (~~Google's Gemini~~ ahem) recommending people "to eat their daily rocks to be healthy". Now I see exactly where the AI got these absurdity from. lol
