Here I was in my own little bubble appearently, thinking people were using https://kagi.com to search now that it exists, but a comment I got made me realize that's probably not the case...

You really should try this search engine. I switched to it 6 months ago and before that I was using duckduckgo, and often had to throw a !g in there to get proper results.

I remember setting it as default as a test and then I just forgot about Google. :)

It's not free however, you will have to pay a few bucks for it. But to me it's about supporting alternatives to Google which I very happily do. It's only a few bucks.

Have you tried it and what was your experience?

Technically it is not very different - it gives the same search results with some extra pluses. But by using it, Google don't get to save those private searches under your personal private name in their databases. Why are we ok with them doing that? I'm really not.
