Don’t use Google. It’s an advertising company. Why would anyone expect to get actual results from a company whose entire existence depends on you clicking ads.
Use 4get! I self host my own but you can find endless public instances online, like 4get.ca
4get is a proxy search engine that strips out all the tracking and garbage, so on the search instance you can pick whether you want it to use Google, DuckDuckGo, Bing, and a bunch of other ones.

I agree. However, I still feel like it delivers the best search results.

“IQ Test” with every fucking search?? Hard pass.
That’s just that one single instance, heres one I host with no bot test for bots https://4get.lurx.net/
Thank you!
It’s self hostable. I somehow missed that bit. Even better!
