I was using DuckDuckGo for some time, but heard that there are better alternatives. I’m confused, because DDG is used by default in TOR browser, and other privacy respecting browsers (ex. Librewolf). Can you guys recommend any other search engine, and tell me why u recommend it?

Or, is DDG enough?

    the issue with SearX is the search results can be irrelevent or something random.

    Haha, oh, right! I just remembered that often times when I searched something completely harmless some weird porn sites would appear in the results which had clearly absolutely nothing to do with the things I’ve been searching for. It’s one of the reasons why I stopped using SearX(NG).

      Are you being serious? You’re not mocking what I was saying?

      I really want to like Searx but it’s not helpful.

      You have to set SafeSearch at least to “moderate” to stop NSFW stuff appearing in your search. SearXNG only proxies what other engines feed to it.
