    There’s actually pretty many to choose from.

    Ones I’ve tried:

    others:

    Honestly, just switch your default search engine in your phone-settings and see what happens. After a while you don’t even realize you’re not using Google anymore. And if you’re not pleased with the search result (which I rarely am these days, using ecosia) see if Google gives a better answer. Mostly not. Happy experimenting! ;)

      These are definitely preferable to using straight Google but some of these use Google/Bing to get search results. I’m not sure of the others but Ecosia use Google/Bing for their results and Startpage uses Google. Quant does seem to use their own index but it seems like it was built partially off bing when they first started off. Again, not sure about the others if they have their own index.

      PS: What’s wrong with Brits?
