Since Internet search has and will change, which search engines do you use successfully, and what are their advantages?

I use searx.be wich is based of SearX. It basically gathers up all the results from a bunch of different engines and accesses them from their IP instead of yours. Makes it harder for engines to fingerprint you on the internet. It can sometimes be a bit slow, but I'll trade in speed for security and privacy any day. You don't need to use the .be instance, there are multiple ones, just like lemmy and the other fediverse instances.
