Kagi. It's $5 - $10 a month, but you aren't the product. I switched last
year and never looked back.
I'm not opposed to a search engine being ad supported.
In a way I'm saying I'm more likely to click on an ad presented by a
search engine whose results matched what I asked for rather than some
perverted munging of my stated search terms.
In any case their homepage is so disgusting that I'll not consider them.
Reminds me of old hamburger ad "Where's the beef". Its all their version
of visual "glitz" - without content.

Google and DuckDuckGo appear to value quantity over quality.
From DuckDuckGo I frequently get responses of form:
Including results for ...
Search only for ... ?
The first mutates your search terms to those in its approved vocabulary.
The second condescends to search for your desired terms.
Another major problem is they return a set that is a logical union,
rather than logical intersection, of the specified set of elements.
Suggestions?
TIA
