I've been using Brave:

https://search.brave.com/

For my usage it gives good results, and it has the added bonus of providing links to google et al when you scroll down the results (it assumes that if the first page of results isn't good enough then the user will go elsewhere, so why not provide links to the other search engines?).



+1 for Brave search. I had used DDG for a couple years before and it was fine, but Brave actually seems good.

(I don't like their font but that's an easy fix with userstyles.)


I wanted to try brave, but it’s not even an option for safari iOS search main search bar! Only options are Google, yahoo, bing, ddg, and ecosia


Could you set it as your home-page? Obviously not as nice as going via the URL-bar, but at least you'll be able to get a taste of it.


Yes but honestly if it’s not in the url bar I’m not going to use it.


Wouldn't it be cheaper for Apple to just buy DDG or Brave?


I think you might be right.
