    Doesn’t it just use Google / Bing under the hood? If those both suck then it wouldn’t improve much, right? Isn’t SearXNG more about privacy?

      Its more about the customizability. One searxng search can search through 100 search engines if you really wanted it to

      Almost all other search engines (ddg, kagi, etc) also use google / bing dataset to augment their search data.
