I use Kagi frequently, and just for giggles give Yandex image search a try, you can actually specify dimensions (like you used to on Google).

Another recommendation to use Yandex Image search as an option. They search differently and also try to find similar images.

With /giphy I think half the fun is when it falls flat on its face. The original command is always visible and most people just read that for the sentiment and then enjoy when the gif it found misses the mark by a mile.
One used to be able to just right click on an image and copy it. Now, I only get a still. I try clicking into the website that hosts the image and it's click, click, click just to get anywhere close to the size I want and often times its not even an animated gif anyway because they do some sort of media query and serve me up an uncopyable movie instead.
The web sucks now. People work around it with bots and the like on Reddit, but I feel like the economics have been figured out and it's not fun anymore.
Instead, we use /giphy in our Slack and hope the algorithm finds something that kinda-sorta was what we were thinking.
