I live in a country which uses a language I don’t speak but Google defaults to regional results in spite of my language being set to English. All other engines give me really poor results (not that Google was giving good ones, the image search has really gone to shit since they started populating it with AI stuff).
As much as I dislike it, mainly Google still. Sometimes Bing for the AI help. Brave Search is also really good and the only new search engine I can see surpassing Google some day.
Brave’s latest update made it so image searches are only through Google or Bing for me. After seeing this, I’ve been using ecosia.org and it’s fantastic!
Ecosia image search is literally just searching Bing through a middle-man.

https://www.bing.com/images/search?q=tree
So is DuckDuckGo but with a few tweaks here and there
Ya, but on my end with Brave’s new changes I’m redirected to Bing.com for images. So the middle man is better than a direct connection in my eyes.
