I hope this is a joke, because it's the most useful search engine I have ever used in the past decade.

Cannot speak for anyone else, but I have been having problems with my preferred SearXNG instances returning garbage results that have nothing to do with what I searched. Before anyone asks, no I am unable to self-host my own personal instance and don't feel like changing settings every time I close and reopen my browser.

    For me disable bing and yahoo make better. And google look like not return result anymore.

    Edit: Setting saved in cookie. If browser autodelete cookie, add exclude for searxng instance domain.

    self-hosting implies making the service available for yourself with tunnels or port forwards. Yet, I've been running searxng container and accessing it via localhost without issues. I could write a guide and share my docker compose file..
