Been using Yandex as my default search for almost a year now. It's like the old Google and DDG. It doesn't have as many SEO sites like Google results and actually respects when you put quotes around to force include a word in the query making it much more useful for searching up programming errors. The only downside I found is that it has a bunch of anti-degeneracy filters which sometimes interfere if for example if you search up something like "unixporn" it will try and block the word "porn" in the results. Also translate.yandex.com is really good at translating Russian, but seems slightly worse than Google translate for Chinese.
