To be honest I haven't been using DDG for a couple of years, basically right when I found out that it was founded and operated by an oven dodger. This sort of shit will always happen when jews are involved.

Using a searx instance is one of the best choices for search engine alts. You could go wth startpage, but they're a more centralized engine. Who knows if they truly are respecting your privacy.

Is searx amazing? Fuck no. But there are no real competitors when you're talking about a private search engine.

The biggest problem with meta-search engines is they pull from the big search engines for all their results. So if Google is censoring something, and so is bing and yahoo, etc you won't see it on searx.

I don't want private, I want uncensored

Probably Torch Search in Tor. But then you will only be getting Tor results. If you want uncensored its probably time we abandon the baseline infrastructure of the internet as we typically use it.

Could not agree more

Before anyone asks: No, cryptocurrencies are not some catch-all solution to this problem

Same deal. You're going to need to setup your own web crawler and search engine if you want fully uncensored.

Running a global search engine is prohibitavely expensive. If you run your own public, uncensored search engine, you'll have glowies knocking on your door within moments.

your only real option for uncensored search is to run your own, private (just for you), web crawler, indexer, and search engine.

I've come to the reality there is no private, I just don't want to also have to settle for there is no censored too. Though we may have been at this realty for a long time...

not true. searx can pull from many smaller engines like brave, qwant, etc

See my comment about running a global search engine being prohibitavely expensive. brave isn't keeping the lights on via donations..

Brave and qwant both censor search results. May not be to the same degree as google or bing, but they censor. If they didn't, they would have been shut down by now.
