Searx is dogshit

Why the fuck do people on Jow Forums always recommend Searx, and why is it default on Ungoogled Chromium? Here's a list of problems I have had with it.

>Changes results every time I hit search

>Breaks down a lot
What's the hype over this pile of dogshit? I use startpage, and you fags said that is a meme search engine, despite that having zero of the problems I mentioned above. What is so appealing about Searx to Jow Forums?

Load Tor and a VPN/proxy and use Google. Stop wasting your life and make yourself pissed just because of a meme alternative. Google is number 1 for a reason. It's the best search engine.

Very true. Jow Forums loves eating it's own time

enable startpage on it, and disable google
google captcha's them cuz they're too incompetent to get unblocked from doing searches.
startpage gets google searches though

the reason your searches are irrelevant is cuz most of them are probably bing, which is absolute fucking dogshit.

>No relevant results, oftentimes only 10
because you're using an instance with google disabled most likely
>Changes results every time I hit search
because you're using a shitty instance
>Images filled with porn when I search something unrelated to sex
image search has historically been difficult problem to solve, use an established search engine for it
>Breaks down a lot
because you're using a shitty instance
>What is so appealing about Searx to Jow Forums?
it's a self hosted meta search engine, if you don't see the appeal in that then it's not for you

Who? Startpage is pretty good.

Fuck off kikes, startpage gets google results and it works perfectly

just use jewgle you fucking retard

user, I have news for you about this forum.

Google's censorship is so bad I routinely have to use yandex to find something google has expunged from their search engine.

They reccomend it because it is the only free and decentralized (meta) search engine. That's the only objectively good thing about it unless you actually like mixing Bing Google and Yahoo search results.
I don't. I like the idea of decentralizing things, but with search it has too many problems. You're not effectively anonymizing yourself by conducting searches on your personally owned and maintained instance of SearX, because it's just a proxy at your house or work. You trust some autistic fucking sonic fan avatar user on github (the dev, maintainer of the primary public instance) with your data over Startpage or a business like them or Qwant that is more established, and yes, centralized? SearX lacks the resources to resist government demands and court proceedings that inevitably drag on forever. If the government wants his data or access, they will sneeze him over, his intentions will not matter even if they are good, and no one will care.

Use Qwant or DDG, or StartPage.
>load up a CIA honeypot and use the CIA honeypot browser
Holy shit, you faggot

Also the dev for SearX ignores a bug about the search engine not working half the time that you do it from universal bar in chrom- browsers

glowie

You obviously don't value freedom if you're willing to throw it away for a couple more relevant results.

You are being delusional.

How does Searx have more freedom than Startpage?

Not true. I had some issues setting up my own instance with Morty proxy with https and he replied pretty quickly and solved it for me.

If you have a better freedom respecting meme search engine, use it.

>No relevant results, oftentimes only 10
Have you even bothered to set up search engines

>Changes results every time I hit search
Works on my machine

>Images filled with porn when I search something unrelated to sex
Yeah image search is shit, for that just use ddg or startpage

>Breaks down a lot
Works on my machine

moron

>no ads
>open source
>how is it more free

Tor isn't useful in sites that aren't onion

bright in here...
