What's your preferred alternative? I use DuckDuckGo, and it's... OK. I still often switch over to Google when I'm having a hard time finding relevant results on DDG.

SearXNG. It's a meta-search aggregator, you can use any public instance (the config is all in-browser) or host your own for kind of extra privacy.

Checked it out, stopped reading at “blockchain”.

It seems to depend on the type of search. For ordinary information, I'm using DuckDuckGo. For shopping, I go to Google, but the results aren't great. I'm undecided for serious research.
