I’m stuck with what to choose. I prioritise speed and privacy

I guess i'm doing pros and cons for all of them now:

Startpage Pros - uses google's search results and anonymous view, eu based Cons - Bought my an ad company

Qwant Pros - eu based Cons - lots of ads, sometimes a bug where it is in france

DDG pros - faster than the other two, Cons - https://techrights.org/o/2020/07/02/ddg-privacy-abuser-in-disguise/

Startpage. Qwant's kinda shit, and DDG is known to have sub-par results, as well as being American.

Startpage is owned by an ad agency
