    Fucking company town. Google has become a real shit company. Switch your default search to duck duck go or anything else people!

        As awesome as it is, it’s still a meta search engine so you’d have to remember to exclude Google. Otherwise hosting your own search engine is mega cool!

          yeah, using a someone elses public searx (like i do ) just seems unhygienic.

        No I just mean the this is yet another item in a LOOOOOOOONG line of things where Google has gone the pure shit route.

        In the last couple years, Google serves me more ads as search results than actual relevant results. The enshitification of the internet is real and I finally see it. I’ve have enough. Between Reddit, twitter, Google, SEO, Facebook and friends, Amazon becoming wish.con, etc everything is just going to shit. Maybe it makes me some old boomer dreaming of the glory days, but I’ve had enough. I refuse to be a product and I refuse to put any money towards these shitmaster overlords if there’s any way I can help it.
