Re: What search engine best at "Freedom-Respecting"?

   I was under the impression that SearX-ng (use the ng) can still be used
   to build an ad-profile of you. A major advantage of searX is that the
   more people use it, the more anonymous it gets. Otherwise, it's just an
   aggregator, and thus, Google/bing/Brave/DDG etc will still be tracking
   you if you're the only person to use it. Potentially anyhow.
   On the other hand, the benefits of searx-ng are good enough for me to
   self-host and use it everyday.

     I would guess Duckduckgo is much better than the main search engines
     such as Google and Bing.  There are several such as SearX which are
     more
     decentralised, but can also be self hosted, which that comes with
     the
     price tag of time, resources, cost and effort to set up and
     maintain.
     It probably depends what you want or are looking for.
