Yes. Google search quality is abysmal today. Results are always content farms, top 10s, click-baity headlines, and sponsored articles. I've tried Duck Duck Go. It's "ok". I like their stance on privacy, but their results always seem to miss the mark. I've ended up using !g more often then just using the engine itself. I've tried Brave search. Similar experience. I most recently have joined https://kagi.com/ https://kagi.com/ . I've been enjoying it the most so far. I enjoy the results enough and its features to pay for a subscription when it eventually comes out.
