    It’s cheaper to just run SearXNG instance. People claiming any new search engine is better than established ones are hallucinating with their anecdotes.

      How easy is it for an average Joe to set up their own SearXNG instance?

        It appears a bit more difficult than setting up the original Searx. I’ve been poking around in the code for SearXNG lately because I’m planning on migrating to it but haven’t done any serious work with it yet.

      ….have you used Kagi?

      I’ve been mixing it, DuckDuckGo, and Google and the results so far have been rather competitive.
