I’ve recently started using a self hosted SearXNG instance but I’m still using the search engines enabled by default (google, duckduckgo and qwant). What search engines do you have enabled or which ones do you feel you’ve gotten the best results with?

DuckDuckGo, I’ll switch to SearXNG as soon as it comes to Windows
https://coalition.blue :), hosted by your bud lol
Does a public instance ID or log users? I never even considered it because it seems risky, like I’m asking for backdoor access to my network
It does forward your real IP to the search engines so that google doesn’t flake out on me. But otherwise I am not logging anything haha
There are public instances you can use, or if you want it locally hosted, there is wsl2. (Alternatively, join the dark side and install linux!)
