It is becoming near impossible to find relevant information from search engines. Duckduckgo, SearXNG, Bing, Google, and so many more mainstream engines have a significantly high noise to signal ratio, and it is getting worse.

Here are a collection of the best search engines I know, please add more to the list.

If no more high quality search engines exist, would it be possible to host your own?

EDIT: Some new discoveries. The addon uBlacklist and filters can block super SEO sites from appearing in search.

    I thought the AI assistant was free? I just downloaded the bang app and I just use the AI assistant whenever I search for anything now.

    I don’t use any sort of enterprise, or full disclosure know what any of the other things you said are, any of those options or parameters.

    But bing’s really impressed me lately, haha, so I still use it.

    Actually on my desktop, I just use the regular Bing search, which I do now find superior to Google for just finding quick accurate answers for basic stuff.

    It’s still crazy to me a year later after switching all my default search engines to Bing after using Google for so long, but Google search is just such trash now, it’s insane.

      It is free, but the Enterprise version doesnt store anything (not even usage statitistics) and runs on separate systems (allegedly) aswell as having no limits.
