So fucking glad I use SearXNG. This looks like a shit show.

SearXNG is free, open-source software so I’m not entirely sure how advertising would be beneficial for them (at least in the financial sense).

Of course. Everything Google does is an ad.

There's also LibreY, which has torrent searching as well, works without JS, and suppports redirecting to privacy-friendly proxies..

I had started using SearXNG a while back and it was working nicely but it occasionally would just stop working and even after trying a few different instances i would be unable to use it. I'm gonna give it another try, I'm really tired of Google et Al 🫠
