    I’m interested in self hosted web search engines to run at home instead of using Google is SearXNG a good replacement or are there other better suggestions?

    Other than self hosting a search engine what are some good web search providers? Most of my device browsers list the following default options:

    • Google
    • Yahoo
    • Bing
    • DuckDuckGo
    • Ecosia

      There is also Kagi, a paid search engine. They recently gained some controversy due to “partnering” with Brave, but quickly backtrack on the “partner” announcement.

        I have used Kagi for several weeks and can’t go back. I can finally find things on the internet again and I don’t want to lose that again.
