Hi! I'm trying to find a Google alternative, tried duck duck go but found it very lacking, both in results and interface (not showing the date on the links, for example, that's useful). Obviously don't wanna go the bing route. Any recommendations? Also, sorry if this is not the right place to ask, I didn't know where! Thanks!

Kagi! It costs money, but it's worth it. I just heard about it here a few days ago on a similar post and I signed up. So long corporate tracking and advertising!

I wouldn't even necessarily mind paying a subscription but having a monthly search limit just gives me anxiety.

Me too. I signed up for the $5 one and then immediately upgraded it to the 10 dollar one. It's 1000 searches every month. I've used 130 searches in the last 4 days, so if that trend holds true then I'll be under the limit by a considerable margin. I set the configuration to alert me as soon as I hit my limit so I don't get charged the 1.5 cents per search if I go over. Initially I felt that the unlimited plan of $25 was way too expensive, but after using it for a few days and thinking about all of the constant frustration I've been feeling with the free search engines, every day, several times per day, for several years now, I'm willing to go unlimited if I need to.
