A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I have the big SearXNG portal bookmarked ( https://searx.space/ ) but I don't find that I ever reach for it that often. Not being able to cull lower quality sites is just a little bit of extra toil I'm happy to pay to go away.
You do have to host it yourself or run your own personal instance to get the power of SearXNG; if you've not tried this, please do not write it off.
If hosting it yourself or even running it locally in a container on your machine at home is too technical for you; nobody is going to bane you for that. In fact there's several guides and videos out there that might help you if you're inclined to learn.
If not; you're also free to continue consuming as you do.
