Maybe ad blockers will allow to hide this stuff

I think there is probably the option to opt out of this feature, it's just that it will be on by default?

I would recommend https://github.com/searxng/searxng

One of my biggest gripes with Google search these days are it's bad UI. Started using searxng a few years ago when Google made everything above the fold useless videos, excessive whitespace, and dynamically poping content to accedently click.
