I have been using other search engines, but I cannot find something with very good results. Everyone is pointing out Kagi, but it is paid, and I do not want to pay for it (basically because of the number of searches I could have, even paying the most expensive one, I do not think it is enough).
Which search engine would you recommend to use?

I know it's become less fashionable in recent times, but I still default to DuckDuckGo. Especially because I can very quickly perform my search again on a different site using bangs, if I don't find what I was looking for in the first try. (https://duckduckgo.com/bangs).
