Tried ddg years ago, but I found Searx(NG) and I stick to it since. So awesome. The only downside is that some instances can be unstable for a bit (for example, certain search engine can stop working), but you can export and import settings really easily so I just use another instance I trust until my main one is back to normal.

Sure, visit [email protected] and [email protected] to start exploring. Also, fuckcombustion.com is an awesome forum about this field.

And please, don't fall to these headship vapes, which are mostly crap.

Edit: Also, I gave a general recommendation to another user here so it might be useful to you too.
