I use duck duck go.
It's pretty good, but it's obviously not as good as google. And I'll frequently have to actually google something.
Things that are almost comically bad on DDG:
-maps/restaurants/businesses -news/current events
DDG is a good bing proxy, but I do prefer Google's results so I use startpage which is to Google what duckduckgo is to bing. Neither have their own web crawler they both are simple proxies to another engine
