I've recently started using a self hosted SearXNG instance but I'm still using the search engines enabled by default (google, duckduckgo and qwant). What search engines do you have enabled or which ones do you feel you've gotten the best results with?

I used to use SearXNG until I discovered 4get

Isn't this how all the privacy respecting search engines started?

The issue is the search index.

Afaik, only Brave uses its own search index. (It acquired Tailcat, so there's that.)

I use Duckduckgo, but it uses Bing as its base.
