Thank you. I needed this. The "free" search engines have tainted my experience of this world. Frankly, I hate it here. I'm ready for the inevitable "Apocalypse"/" Alien invasion" that stops the absolute incompetence that permeates our society. Whether you understand it or not, I beseach upon you my blessings, may your days provide success in your endeavores, and bountiful returns to your entire home. Bless you for sharing.
Another vote for Kagi here as well... except for searching for local businesses near where I live, I revert to Google for that, but I Google through Kagi so privacy is somewhat protected
