Metacrawler + uBlock Origin (use adblocker to stop google ad spam)
This is a metasearch with it's own crawler

It feels wrong going back to the option I used before Google was a thing...
Look at the backends
DuckDuckGo is just rebranded Bing

I haven't used DDG since they became compromised, settled on Brave Search and Swisscows. Kind of sad that Swisscows is also just rebranded Bing.
You are probably thinking "Webcrawler"
I think Metacrawler uses Webcrawler as one of its sources.

Nope, it was meta, webcrawler had the spider logo, but using meta for a metasearch just clicked better with me.
