What the Google overlords don't want you to see
I still recommend a Searx instance over google. Independently run search engines using an open-source software that aggregate searches over multiple engines, including Google, Bing, Yahoo, Wikipedia, DDG, Ecosia, and many many more.

This kind of thing is why I use searx

Searx.be was shut down by ISP
This was my default search in Safari, the "new tab opens with" way.
Now it shows "Cloud provider terminated all my servers, service is down for the moment. Working on it. Sorry. Please use other instances on https://searx.space"

Try a Marxist-Leninist search engine - is it useful?
Assuming you don't publicly list this instance on searx.space, you should be fine with a small vps. I don't see this thing having more than a dozen concurrent users so I wouldn't bother with a vps larger than 2gb of ram and 2 cpu . This should cost less than 10-20 bucks a month on vultr or digitalocean. Then you just need a domain, which can be as little as like 8 bucks a year depends on where you get it. So I'd estimate it would cost 80-120 a year to run.

Haha nice try Google. I ain't that stupid
If anyone is interested in getting around search related privacy issues, look into a public SearXNG instance. It doesn't mitigate all privacy concerns but does a lot to move in that direction.

Ask HN: What is your replacement for Google search
Right now I am okay with DDG. The amount of times I have resorted to tacking on the !g has only been decreasing.
I also use one extra thing, an extension called 'highlight or hide search engine results'[1]. I have first party documentation highlighted in blue, good community sites in green, lower quality sites greyed out, and content farms hidden completely. I've also been storing page highlights in raindrop.io[2]
Between the two of these I spend less overall time actually reviewing the search results and it is easier for me to return to good results that I found in the past.

Do any of you ever google a question and add “reddit” after the question because surprisingly reddit will get you straight to the answer rather than having to go through an annoying spammy website?
Im using https://github.com/pistom/hohser for that purpose!

Greasemonkey alternative with cloud-support
I don't know how often that would be a problem, but I know it's an issue for at least one extension, as discussed here (users who fill up Sync'd storage have to switch the extension to using non-Sync'd storage): https://github.com/pistom/hohser/issues/140
