Google is way to compliant to DMCA request resulting in bad result. Bing doesnt seems to care and will happily link to live and replay of sport event (the main reason I use it personnaly) even as a first result.

PS : If you're french dont forget to change your DNS or any quality site will not load

Qwant sends data to Bing ads, and didn't tell its users about it for five years.

Yandex is a Russian company with strong government links that I wouldn't trust in any way.

Ecosia, I've been using it a while now and they plant trees with there profit, I have personally covered the cost of planting 75 trees over the last couple years just be using it instead of Google. They have planted over 175mil trees and they are transparent with there finances.
