        Searxng, Whoogle, Librex, Mullvad Leta (accessible with a Mullvad subscription)

        I also use brave search with many of its SaaS features turned off (AI summary, discussions) because Brave has a independent index thats useful to consult. The previous ones I mentioned are proxies to already established indices.

          searxng is a meta search engine. It uses google search, among others. it is not a search engine itself.

          whoogle uses google. so it’s not a search engine itself

          so does librex.

          and so does mullvad leta
