Swisscows.com seems to be working for me but I don't think I'm removing "trackers".
Can you give an example? What browser is removing the "tracker portion"? How is it doing that?
The querystring can contain trackers. But for searching it usually contains your search terms. So, if your browser is removing the querystring, then searches probably won't work.
Yeah there is definitely no size fits all there, you can't just remove the entire query string
That's what I'm wondering. I've used both Searx and SwissCows and I've never seen any tracking going on in the URL.
