Qwant, Ecosia, and (to an extent) DDG share the same Bing backend for web results, so if you're particularly interested in trying out alternatives, here are some others. All of these have their own search indexes. https://yippy.com https://yippy.com - ugly, but probably the best independent search engine outside the "big ones" and DDG https://private.sh/ https://private.sh/ - Run by PIA as a proxy for Gigablast, small index but rapidly getting better https://mojeek.com https://mojeek.com - UK-based, worth trying but has a spam problem https://beta.cliqz.com https://beta.cliqz.com - German based, their technical blog has been posted frequently on HN. Will eventually require a browser extension or their own browser to search. https://yandex.com https://yandex.com - Ought to be mentioned, but certainly not privacy focused.
