Been using SearXNG for about a year now, and I just can’t deal with instances constantly getting blocked by search engines anymore. So I’d like to find something a bit more reliable. I’ve read that DuckDuckGo has had some controversies in the past, and I wouldn’t touch Brave with a 39 and a half foot pole.

    I’m pretty sure DDG said they were censoring certain results that were misinformation related to Covid stuff.

    Some people flipped out because ddg said they were removing results for what they deemed as conspiracy theories about Covid, at least that’s what I heard.

      Yeah but… That was like 10 very loud idiots. There was a time where “news sites” spammed covid misinformation and they where right to block it.
