I live in a country which uses a language I don’t speak but Google defaults to regional results in spite of my language being set to English. All other engines give me really poor results (not that Google was giving good ones, the image search has really gone to shit since they started populating it with AI stuff).

      Metasearch engines are the way to go, I wish more people hosted their instances so folks wouldn’t run into rate limits so often

      Whoa, this is the first time I’ve heard of a metasearch engine or SearXNG, this is incredible. I’ve been a DDG user for a while but I might have to switch…
