You could use Startpage, which is a proxy/frontend to google.

Duckduckgo is also popular. It is a proxy/frontend for Bing.

Then there are tonnes of Metasearchers, such as a lot of freely available
Searx instances., or Xaarky.

Those generate quality results for searches. Beyond that, it is uncharted
territory. Gigablast is worthy of mention because it is both a FOSS search
engine you can install and deploy (it takes a lot of resources) and a website
you can use for your searches (gigablast.com). Results are not that good,
though.

BUt the best search engine is Veronica 2 for gopherspace. \o/
