I use Presearch and generally the results are good enough for my use. Just block the ads and ignore the crypto scam. Seirdy also has a pretty exhaustive list of search engines to choose from.

I've been using Startpage and loving the results mostly. There's a big section at the top of most searches that bugs me though. It's like an alternative search query written several different ways, but I have to scroll past it every single search.
U try startpage.com ?
Yeah, I use it as a fallback sometimes. The one thing I like about Presearch is that it has a customizable sidebar that let's you duplicate your search on another engine with one click if the results are shite. I also use Allsearch to that end but with Presearch it's synced across computers through my account.
Humans do LARP just by using A.I.
You could always tell it to do that using atomic operations if you prefer.
Click "Web". Might be hidden behind "More".
