Google and Bing are about all there is.
Most other ‘search engines’ just offload the hard work onto existing search engines.
Very few people actually know DuckDuckGo sources their results from Bing for example.
The infrastructure Mozilla uses to serve their content is microscopic compared to what they’d need to operate a fully independent and capable modern search engine.
