1. Reshot (Icons, Illustrations)

Reshot offers a vast collection of free SVG icons (40,000+) and vector illustrations (1,500+). The best part? No attribution is required, and you can use these images for commercial purposes while also having the freedom to edit them.

Additionally, I recommend checking out a website called WorldVectorLogo, where you can easily find SVG logos of famous companies, software, etc., saving you the hassle of searching through Google Images.
