      For some, money is tight, and there are already so many subscriptions available for premium service. Many of those are solutions to combat forced enshitification. The Internet is too powerful of a tool to back us into paying for every little feature. So forgive me for being a dum dum and not giving in and enabling these services that aim to nickel and dime.

        No one is saying that you should pay for every little feature.

        This whole thread is about a service which, in my opinion, is worth that $10 (or $5 for the standard plan) when its results are way better than the alternatives and, as the business plan is clear, it doesn’t sell you to third-parties.

        And obviously, I don’t assume that the same people above who suggest self-hosting SearXNG are in remote third world countries, because economically the price is on par with it. (Yeah, yeah, “But muh $5/mo vps can do it!” You manage that and keep up with it and see how you like it just to save those nickels and dimes.)

        Search was never free. And we’re talking about just $10.
