Been using this for many many years now. If you think you can’t live without Google, give it a go. VERY rare that I actually need to use another search engine for anything.

I moved to Duck Duck Go a while ago, partly for privacy reasons and partly because Google was becoming very top heavy with ads. It’s still a better search engine so I’ll use it occasionally, but only if DDG is really not getting what I need.

Do you know how good Ecosia is in terms of privacy? If it’s as good as DDG, then sure I’d use it.

I think DDG probably has more privacy features overall if you put them side by side, but Ecosia is certainly good enough for me Ecosia - Privacy

Ddg is not that good for privacy and gives really bad search results, so give Startpage a try
