    Privacy-respecting metasearch engine

    In light of recent news, DuckDuckGo CEO Gabriel Weinberg suggests the search engine will now filter results based on recent political events [1]. For those considering or aware of alternatives, what are they?

    For me, DuckDuckGo was supposed to represent private (not selling user data), unbiased (i.e. apolitical), fast search results. Ideally a replacement would meet as many of these goals as possible. Some alternatives I'm aware of:

    * Searx - https://searx.github.io/searx/

    * Brave search - https://search.brave.com/

    Note this is not a discussion about the morality of DuckDuckGo's recent actions.
