Some day surely Windows and Mac will get something similar to SearXNG, then you won’t have to worry about this stuff
I am a Linux user.
Then I’d suggest SearXNG. I use public instances because no one has made a way for me to natively host it myself, but I recommend it regardless
That reminds me : Last time I tried Garuda Linux it came with a local Whoogle instance.
Unfortunately it’s broken all the time because it gets IP-banned by Google. Perhaps they could implement something like the Invidious smart-ipv6-rotator to prevent this.
What prevents you? Lots of people run their own instance.
Nah, self hosted local search engine on Microsoft’s platform? Lol
Yep
