Any “small-web” search engines? (lemmy.zip)

I use Duckduckgo, but I realised these big(ish) search engines give me all the commercialised results. Duckduckgo has been going down the slope for years, but not at such a rate as Google or Bing has.

I want to have a search engine that gives me all the small blogs and personal sites.

Does something like this exist?

No. It's for privacy. If they don't support anonymous payments, there's literally no reason to host a .onion site just to fool people. I'd say that's a big red flag from a "privacy respecting" company.

    There are pros/cons to anonymous payments. It's a bit sophomoric to claim privacy is impossible without anonymous payments.

    There are most definitely many use cases for .onion sites without any sort of payments ("anonymous" or otherwise).
