Monthly fee for everyone or you mean freemium? Freemium in my opinion wont be enough to cover the cost, because works well only with services with low cost per-user. And monthly fee for everyone is a very hight incentive of not using YouTube.

I already know Searxng but never tried extensively, I might give a serious try

I’ve used duckduckgo but I remember was really slow loading results 🤔

For brave search, I’ve never took it seriously, I should try also this if you say results are good. But how they found themselves?

I’ve tried time ago but it seems to take the results and nothing else (I mean, no summary on top of the results, no table with restaurant number/time of opening ecc…) -> I don’t know how to call this

I am the only one that use Linux and bing as a default search? (On firefox) I personally think bing have better results than google right now
