searxng
SearXNG is a free internet metasearch engine which aggregates results from various search services and databases. Users are neither tracked nor profiled.
Can I just recommend searx? You choose which search engines (including google), you want results from and it gets them from there. You can even set it up to just get results from google and nowhere else, and it will be a privacy-friendly google. Should you want to, you can even host it yourself. Otherwise, just use an existing instance, like searx.be, which seems to be the most popular one.
Also, if you don't know, Reddit is of course one of the biggest internet companies, and they are getting paid to remove content that doesn't please the people with the money. If you want to know how much and what is removed, you can check with this site: https://www.reveddit.com/

I had this also for the first year or so, but over time you unlearn how to search in Google and now I only once every 3 months or so need to try to find something in Google. It has come so far that when I'm somewhere where DDG is not the default engine and I search something in Google I'm lost at all the changes and advertisement in Google so I manually type in duckduckgo.com to get back to the thing I'm used to.
