Been trying to get away from DuckDuckGo because of their support of "AI" stuff, but come on, one of these isn't even in English, and that's what I have my language set to.

How's Qwant in terms of search results and privacy/AI?

I've been using startpage (it's an improvement over Mojeek, that was kinda unusable).

Mojeek has improved a lot in last times. Is a good alternative, but always good to use several search engines for different tasks, all they have its + and -, eg Startpage is good for image search, Andi is fine for semantic and concept searches with excelent summaries, Mojeek and Qwant for general websearch, etc.- In the Vivaldi forum you can find the, maybe, most complete list of search engines out there which you can test (all include the needed insert code to add these direct to the list in your browser - 19 page thread)

search results: they used to suck when i tried using qwant a year ago, but now theyre the exact same as on ecosia and google from my experience

privacy: this is what they say on their website

AI: havent spotted any ai featurea yet

I'm a bit distrustful of the current french political scene and macron's involvement in their phasing out of American tech (which is in principle good but it's the actors here that are sus).

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
