It is clear that the signal to noise ratio of the WWW is getting worse. It's much harder to find good content when using a good old search engine. And if it's good it is usually hosted on Reddit or Stackexchange.

So remember, even if it's easy too Google something (well, it isn't nowadays), we want to create a fediverse of good content that helps people (I hope). So, it's always better to write a real answer if you have the time and energy. Please help boost the SNR and reverse the AI fueled information degradation loop.

I prefer DuckDuckGo, but federated SearXNG exists too (but imo it's not as good as DDG)

All good choices, but udm14.org filters out ads too.

I'm surprised Google still let that feature available. Do you think there is any risk they'll kill it in the future?

It's all but guaranteed.
