Been using SearXNG for about a year now, and I just can't deal with instances constantly getting blocked by search engines anymore. So I'd like to find something a bit more reliable. I've read that DuckDuckGo has had some controversies in the past, and I wouldn't touch Brave with a 39 and a half foot pole.

Definitely give Kagi a try. Reliable, pretty accurate and privacy respecting. For that though you'll need to actually pay for the service.

Can you explain what's so good about it compared to Google besides the privacy aspect? I hear it's "better" a lot.

+1 for Kagi. I finally decided to drop Google after their bullshit WEI proposal with Chrome recently and it has been great so far. Yes, Kagi is paid, but we all know the saying that "if you're not paying for it, you are the product." That's not the case with Kagi.

Curious, do they accept crypto as payment?
