My searx instance is down for a while, and I was forced to use and try all the search engines, all of them are really bad

You can set this as your default search engine and every use it will redirect you to a random searx instance

The bookmark doesn't seem to work for me on mull browser android. I've added the bookmark link as a search engine:

https://searx.neocities.org/#q=%s&category_general=on

But when i use it with "test" for example, without quotes, i'm just landing on the default page. The searched text doesn't appear in the searchbox.

Maybe i missed something ?

Thanks for the reply. Tried again just now and it works indeed as advertised, sorry for the noise. Maybe because i removed it from my bookmarks (i tried that until i figured there's no shortcuts in mull). Or maybe some cache expired...

Anyway, it works indeed, thanks !
