Tired of duckduckgo using MSN's amp thing for news or blocking some websites, and it's now adding shit AI too. Don't want to spend any money running a searxng instance for the time being and most public instances are too overwhelmed.

Any suggestions? Doesn't need to be perfect, just not too annoying.

just started using Firefox with ublock origin for the same reason. I run the kagi plug-in on Firefox so I can tailor my search engine preferences (https://kagi.com/). I go back and forth between those two mostly.
