https://kagi.com no ads, great results. It’s $5 a month but worth it imo
Seconding. Kagi is the only one that was able to replace Google for me.
I need to try it out. If it's as good as its reputation implies and stays that way, I'd be $5/mo amount of interested. But I have no idea how many times I'm going to need to search for something per month. Not a fan of that limitation.
You can get 100 searches for free to try it. I'm using it for purchases and technical queries, because the results are hugely less polluted. If I'm searching for, say, a film or a book, I use Google and not one of my paid searches
This is the only true Google replacement I've found.
It's really good. The price tag is worth it imo as they buy results from a host of other search engines including Google, but the results are actually better.
For the web search I need to do it's really not worth it. if my job required good web search results to be effective then it would be a different matter but alas I am not a software developer or an analyst...
