I switched to DuckDuckGo for a few years, then went to Ecosia for a while, and now I'm using searx. I'm not sure how searx prioritises the results, so I'm still adjusting to it, but overall it works okay.

don't use google. basically any engine is better. I would recommend using a searxng instance. Soi that nobody can ever enshittify it ever again
If search engines really wanted to fix this--and it would require Google and Bing taking action, not smaller search engines--they could de-list any company that engaged in SEO so that nothing from that company showed up in searches at all.

Use searx: https://searx.github.io/searx/ It provides the expected results and do not track you. You can even host it yourself
Or you can take a look at the list of instances here: https://searx.space/
SearX is not maintained anymore. I recommend a fork it called SearXNG
Thanks !
Maybe if less people sucked the dick of LLMs then it wouldn't pervade every facet of our lives?
