Qwant = Bing
Ecosia = Google + Bing
Startpage = Google / Bing
Swisscow = Bing
metaGer = Bing
DuckDuckGo = combination of Yahoo, Google, Bing, and a tiny bit of their own indexing
Brave Search = mostly their own index, but a tiny bit of Bing
Yahoo = used to have their own indexer, but mostly Bing since 2009ish
There are only a few independent indexers, most notably Yandex, but also some tiny projects like vyntr, marginalia, wiby, and other small ones which only index a small fraction of the web.
tbh I’m quite surprised 20 percent of CNN’s audience wants Iran to have nukes
