I have not been able to find anything with sweeteners in it (of any kind) that doesn't taste bad.

I used to feel that way, but for me Coke Zero tricks my brain just enough not to notice. I don't drink it very often, but it's pretty indistinguishable for me otherwise.

My sweetener at home is erythritol, stevia and monk fruit together and it tastes pretty good

disclaimer: I like stevia, it doesn't taste "bitter" to me

I like the initial flavour of Stevia, but the aftertaste is bad. I'm not sure if I'd call it bitter - it's definitely offputting though.
