Hijacking this comment thread to recommend SearXNG, it's basically a decentralized search engine (if I understand correctly) and you can choose from where you want it to give you the results.
You can choose to index searches from both major (like Google, Bing, DDG, etc) and minor search engines at the same time and it will just give you the most relevant results. Alternatively, you can choose what engines you don't want results from as well.
My experience with it has been great so far, I've just had minor issues when searching for something extremely specific and in those cases I use DDG or others, but most of the time the first 3 results are exactly what I'm looking for.
I use the Disroot instance on SearXNG, but you can choose other instances or host your own. There is a dedicated website for choosing instances.
does this also work with safari on ios? One of the reasons I sue duckduckgo is that I can use it across all browsers and operating systems without any issues.
