       I've been using Searxng (the @disroot instance) for the past 6 months. Especially during the past few weeks almost always the first n results are Reddit posts, where I expected to get the a company's website or a news website or StackOverflow threads. I'm now more inclined to try @kagihq . I hope they give good results or I have no choice but to switch back to Google (and Bing).Although #SearXNG  was the only service I was using from Disroot, for the time being i'll keep my donations active.

       @Mehrad Have you customized SearX?SearX only "proxies" results from other search engines.Also, Kagi does have business with yandex if I remember correctly@disroot @kagihq

       @selea As far as I remember, no, I'm using the default settings that the @disroot instance has. I'm not even logged in, so I think I cannot set any fundamental setting that gets applied to all my searches across all my computers and browsers.I'll later take a look and try to compare.About @kagihq, I have not give them a real try. I think some weeks back I created an account to test and then I had a bigger fish to fry. If they have ties with Yandex IJSC, that's a pretty big red-flag for me.
