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)

I don't know, I also use DDG because I can't find a better alternative. I thought you had a better recommendation 😂

The only thing that comes to my mind is 4get, a proxy for DDG which is a little better for your privacy, since you don't have to trust DDG as much. But it lacks some features like DDG's Bangs.

There's also LibreY, a fork of LibreX, which acts as a proxy for Google. Still not great though. The one thing I really like about it, it that it also has a built-in torrent search feature.

I think the best option is SearXNG, you can configure which search engines you want to use, and you can access DDG bangs by using two exclamation marks (e.g. !!yt for YouTube)

Unfortunately there's no good self-hostable search engine with a good web crawler
