I've tried Ecosia in the past, but not the other two. Ecosia seemed OK, but it was pulling its results straight from Bing, and I like a search engine that does a bit more than just Bing results. DDG works pretty goood for me in that regard. SwissCows.com is another alternative search engine I've enjoyed using in the past.

Hello everybody!

Stumbled upon a list of eco-friendly search engines https://ecoripples.com/the-12-best-ecof … h-engines/

Tried
'ecosia', USA based, donates for tree planting

https://www.ecosia.org/

'rapusia', South Africa based, donates for children and animals

https://rapusia.org/

'oceanhero', Germany based, donates for cleaning the ocean from plastic garbage

https://oceanhero.today/

all three worked fine with my primary browser 'luakit'
while DDG, SearX and StartPage often caused crashes /never liked DDG results anyway/

'rapusia' guarantees privacy on their front page
for the other two I didnt see such announcement

will test them for a few days to see the results' relevency before choosing one.
you can check the full list to see if there is an engine that donates for a cause you believe in.
