you don't have to tell me information about why Rui's drive is gone, I just googled it because I forgot their name (I thought it was Anadius' drive at first)

eh, ddg is just bing. Only marginally better ideologically, and probably worse practically.

fr!! im always confused when people advertise ddg as 'the best privacy browser' when it is well-known their results are bing's, also the huge marketing campaign they did about how they're 'the most private and respect your privacy' just weirded me out?? like it was a bit suspicious idk. oh yeah and that thing where the mobile ddg browser allowed microsoft trackers on microsoft ads because of their deal with bing (hey that rhymed!!)

++ half the time when i searched for anything moderately obscure there would be 0 results, or even if i didnt search for stuff like that i'd get results completely unrelated to my query.

What's a good web search engine nowadays?

I've had an easy time finding pirated stuff using the Brave search engine. Main downside is that its run by Brave. Not the best of people imho.

None. There's no good ones. There's at best acceptable ones
