off the top of my head, the options aren’t great – your best bet is check in with [email protected] and [email protected]

corporate
- Qwant – French, subject to GDPR
- Kagi – subscription based rather than ad supported
open source
- SearXNG – successor to SearX, instance based so have to get used to hopping when Google blocks one
  - Random SearX Redirector
