Title says it all. I’ll go first:

I don’t really have any on my computer (all I use that for is Vim, Firefox, and Git), but on my phone: Orbot (basically Tor as a VPN on your phone).

    SearXNG.

    It’s like having a search engine customised to my needs.

    Automatically filters out SEO junk sites, and redirects links automatically (e.g. reddit.com -> old.reddit.com)

        Change your settings.yml to have this

        enabled_plugins:
          - 'Hostname replace'  # see hostname_replace configuration below
        

        And then define the rules like this:

        hostname_replace:
        #   My redirects
          '(.*\.)?reddit\.com$': 'old.reddit.com'
        #   My filters
          'slant\.co': false
          'dailymail\.co\.uk': false
