Somebody help get my ideas straight on this one, please.

To my knowledge, Bing and Google search engine are the default options available out there, to the point other search services relay service from those, give or take a few tweaks (DuckDuckGo, Startpage, etc).

Now lets remove those from the picture and what is left?

I read a post yesterday announcing Ecosia amd Qwant were joining efforts to build a fully european search engine (hopefully, yes, but I'm not holding my breath on it). Maybe that is an option. But what else?
