Google Search is way worse than it used to but still beats DDG by a mile.
I’ve tried SearX and it was meh, maybe there’s some better instance than the one I tried though.
Yandex is good for reverse image search and when the American government makes western search engines block certain search results, but not that useful in general. Also for a period Yandex just kept bombarding me with endless captchas and was completely unusuable
Bing search is just DDG, or well DDG is just Bing.
Baidu search, tbh haven’t tried it much, but even for chinese I had better search results on google search so yeah
DDG is still really good, and DDG isn’t Bing just because it includes it’s results as well. I mainly use DDG and then try Google if I can’t find my result, but 90% of the time DDG finds it just fine.
I mean I use DDG as default search engine in Firefox and Google Search isn’t much better now, but google search isn’t even a 10th as good as it used to be 10 years ago.
I use https://searx.be/ with both Google and DDG results enabled. Otherwise if you want something like Google results you would have to use Start page, although they pay Google for access to their search so you would be indirectly supporting Google.

Maybe try Startpage, it gives you Google results without exposing your data to Google.
