      If I ever can’t find something I’m looking for using a Searx instance, I switch to something like StartPage temporarily.

      As great as Searx is, on very rare occasion I find myself having to switch to a different engine.

        That’s funny, I’m the reverse- Searx is my final solution. I don’t like costing the lovely people hosting it any more than I have to so I start with the duck. If ddg offers nothing, searx always has it.

        As an aside, are you aware that startpage was purchased some time ago? It’s owned by an ad company now.

          Had absolutely no idea startpage was bought because I never keep up on this kinda stuff. Thanks for the heads-up.
