Tired of lame search engines? And don't have friends to share your instance?
Tired of lame search engines? And don't have friends to share your instance?
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
Why? So that you have a bad experience on all instances, not just on one?
I haven't used searx often but when I do, I don't face any issues. What arr your issues with them?
just changed my default to duckduckgo before opening lemmy. i often get "Too Many Requests" message and i had enough.
or this one 👉
Messages from the search engines Error! Engines cannot retrieve results: brave ( timeout ) duckduckgo ( timeout ) google ( timeout ) qwant ( timeout ) wikidata ( timeout ) wikipedia ( timeout ) Sorry! No results were found. You can try to: Refresh the page. Search for another query or select another category (above). Change the search engine used in the preferences: /preferences Switch to another instance: https://searx.spaceDid you try changing the timeout time value? I think the default is 3 seconds...
I couldn't quite understand, can you elaborate? 😅
