With a browser addon LibRedirect you can redirect all kind of sites to their privacy friendly alternatives. Google have 5 alternative backends (searx, searxng, whoogle, librey, 4get).

Alternatively you could try some of the new AI engines like perplexity.ai , but they will likely soon track you as much as google..
