Google search has sucked for a couple years now. DuckDuckGo is better for everything except maps.

Thats because for some ungodly reason they use Apple Maps. Not sure why they dont integrat with an OpenStreetMaps like service. At least that way users can start contributing to fill the gaps

Mapy is also a great European alternative, based on OpenStreetMaps

That's been my go to since they started. There is/was a challenge using them when we evaluated them a while back with forcing safe search reliability if I recall the reason.
