Looking for new search engine (lemmy.today)

I've been using duckduckgo for years now with no issues, but today I opened it and realized there were no longer any search results before scrolling. It was all ads/info cards. So I guess I'm looking for a replacement. Any suggestions?

Related: anyone know if there's a way in the Adnauseum Firefox extension to hide ads on a specific trusted site? I like their goal of not punishing ads following the do not track standard, but DDG has crossed a threshold and I now want to blacklist them specifically.

Presearch.com

This one gives crypto vibes. They talk about earning tokens for using but don't explain what they do.

You can use it WO turn on the crypto stuff, I have like 2 years using presearch and it's a pretty good search engine.

AFAIK it's a decentralized search engine and they operate in a crypto system.
