Try the startpage search engine. It has been much better for me than DDG.

Firefox allows you to select a home page, tho? Not sure what your problem with Firefox is.

How do I do a home page? When I couldn't figure it out I searched online and it said on android you can't.

On android firefox just doesn't perform so well as Chrome does and can seem slow and buggy.

Firefox on Android allows you to install uBlock Origin. That alone is a major improvement over Chrome.

You can also try out Vivaldi, which is based on Chrome and also has a built in ad blocker. I don't think you can install uBlock Origin on Android tho...
