I've been well served of late by SearX, specifically instances running the new-ish SearXNG (fork?).
SearX is a search aggregator, rather than having its own crawler, and as such a number of its instances getting temp suspensions for running too many requests in too short a time on the various search engines it queries. I still get good enough results from it.
- Ruthalas 4y agoI've just started using SerchXNG. How often (if at all) do they add smaller search engines like this one as options in your experience? I was hoping to be able to use some esoteric ones, but that doesn't seem possible, unless I've overlooked something. Being able to aggregate a couple of these up-and-coming engines with result reduplication sounds really neat.
- BLKNSLVR 4y agoI honestly don't pay that much attention, but they do have a decent list of potential search sources, so it's not something they're lazy about. Additionally, this new search site (tuxdex.com) appears to just be a private/anonymous version of their existing search site (websearchengine.net) - although websearchengine.net isn't listed as a source for SearXNG either.
- jacooper 4y agoI use searXNG daily too! But in terms of a real search engine, I find Brave to be the best. If didn't use Searx, I would probably be using Brave. the searx instance I use uses brave and google by default.
