I use Andi since almost 2 years now as main search, it was the first AI search ever, long before all other introduce it. It's from a small Startup of 2 Devs, which also hate Google and the surveillance crap used by it and other Big Brother companies. Centering the LLM less in the capability to be a Chatbot like others, but be able for a good summarize and explain the articles from reliable sources. It don't invent nothing when it don't find the answer, in this case it offers a traditional websearch.
I use Andi as main search by default, but naturally I use also others, eg. Startpage for images, also Mojeek among others, apart some specific ones for Forums, Pixabay, Wikies, etc.. I always find what I search
Whoogle also use the Google search API, like Startpage. But Whoogle is FOSS, you can selfhost it, or use one of it's open instances. But this you must see by yoursel which works best for you.
For other search engines, you can look in the Vivaldi Forum, there is maybe the most complete list of search engines you can find, complete with insert code, made by an user
