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?

much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
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
