DDG proxies Bing results with extra privacy. Startpage proxies Google results with extra privacy (it's a bit slow in my opinion though).

Ecosia proxies both with a bit oft extra privacy, as long as you don't click or block the advertised results.

SearX proxies whatever you want, but its kinda slow last time I tried it.

Brave Search builds their own index, which is pretty good (on par with Bing) even though they're only about a year old at this point. The company is a bit sketchy though.

SEO isn't something google invented, it was just a result of their actions.

While we all hate reddit, them changing the app icon to make a reference to what used to be a fun event shouldn't be our main point.

I dislike the US power plug way more than the Europlug (or compatible sockets like Schuko). It just slides in, only thing holding it in is friction. Also, there is a connection while the contacts are exposed, exposing the user to the risk of shock.

Also, I like DisplayPort more than HDMI, it clicks really nice on insertion and in my opinion pulling it out is also more satisfying.
