Been looking for a search engine that isn't plauged with SEO garbage every time I look for anything. Been using DDG for quite a long time now, and I'm starting to get dissatisfied with results. It seems like more and more results are just companies trying to make their way to the top of the search results instead of anything organic. It's even worse when I look for any kind of service or product.

Looking for as close to 100% organic results as possible.

What's most annoying about the "tailored experience" is that they presume to know what you're looking for, even though you directly told them what to show you. They don't give a fuck about relevancy, they're going to show you whatever is going to make them the most money, which usually means corporate ad crap, and outrage news. Plus if they show you shit results then you'll search multiple times and they'll get to show you 4 times the ads.
