Yeah I'll try these for sure! Thanks for listing them here. I wasn't aware of alternative search engines outside of DDG and Qwant.

Once again it's a shame i wasn't aware of Neeva, would have loved to at least give it a try (and probably pay for it). :(

Yeah same. Ecosia suits me a little more than DDG, both are backed by Bing, both have tags like !g, and while I don't really care about the tree thing that Ecosia does I do like how they give you a choice of which maps to open and one of those is Google - DDG just loads Apple Maps.
