i´ll try brave. i didn´t know this browser before.
do you know the tor-browser?
some google applications are really difficult to avoid. i´ve the same problem.
maybe you can try https://wego.here.com (hope that helps)
the same with the imagery reverse search. i do this sometimes to know who is posting pictures of our art or who sells pictures or stuff like this of our art. it´s really interesting who earns money with your work :). and you find always something new. but it´s hard to find an alternative.
