searx, but I do not self host. Currently lusing searx.be most of the time...

I personally use SearX as my primary search engine (one local instance, the default searx.be instance as a fallback). Sometimes, I use one of the following search engines as well, but generally, there is no need for them in my case (for some of them, I retrieve their results with my SearX search, anyway). I rarely get to the point where SearX cannot provide the required and satisfactory results and I have to search with some specific search engine. The search engines I currently have set up in all of my browsers on both desktops and mobile phones are:

• SearX,
• DuckDuckGo,
• StartPage,
• Qwant,
• Metager and
• some specific search shortcuts for a few websites (Wikipedia, Lemmy, ...).

I have one Whoogle instance set up too, just for testing purposes, though. And I love the idea of per website aggregated results provided by Gigablast, but Gigablast is way too slow to use regularly. Interesting idea, though.

I am using a searx instance.

Maybe(to add): https://searx.neocities.org

Policies:

• Redirects users directly to a random selection of any known running server after entering query.
• Requires Javascript.
• Excludes servers with user tracking and analytics or are proxied through Cloudflare.

I found this random Searx/SearXNG search engine redirector at https://searx.space under the About tab.

To use it, I save the search redirector as a bookmark at https://searx.neocities.org/#q=%s&category_general=on

I also turn on javascript on at searx.neocities.org because otherwise I have to type in my search query manually into a specific search instance.

However if your threat model requires it, you can also go to the no-javascript version of searx.neocities.org. You will not be automatically redirected to a random Searx instance when using no-JS version.

I type in a keyword in the url bar and then the service redirects me to a random Searx/SearXNG instance. For load balancing purposes, it seems great since no single server will be stressed significantly. The searches are spread across multiple instances.

Sometimes the redirected Searx/SearXNG instances output bad results(e.g. errors). In that case, just use the Searx redirector again to have new random Searx/SearXNG instance.
