Definitely Kagi, for me the results are better than Google’s. Of the free ones, Brave is for general queries like movie titles, games, or news. Or public SearXNG instances, but the quality and stability aren’t great.
NoAI removes the built-in AI in DDG and some AI images. For complex technical search queries, 9/10 sites are still AI.
