I'm kind of tired of Google sending me to the same 3 sites whenever I search for something. If not the same 3 sites it's 7 others that are so generic and boring I just feel they're useless. It's always makeuseof, androidauthority, or whatever other sites that have useful information but I rarely feel like they are saying anything new.
I want to see the results from those small blogs that are sometimes linked here. I can't come up with one since… you know that's why I'm asking how to find them, but you know them; they talk about nerdy stuff and are not afraid to get technical in whatever topic they discuss.
Also duckduckgo and qwant do the same thing. If there is a way to curate the results to better fit my needs then that'd be great too!

You’ll see a bunch of them are metasearch engines, and not crawlers
Mojeek, Kagi and variations of SearXNG are good bets. Kagi will allow curation. Mojeek lets you make “Focus” filters. Worth trying out.
