I run my own SearX instance (https://searx.andmc.ca) and really haven't noticed "worse" results. Granted I haven't really touched the configuration in several weeks but it's been working fine for me. There's nothing special about my instance either it's just straight up default settings for almost everything.
Maybe it's just whatever instances you're using? I don't know. I mean feel free to give mine a shot to see if it's any better.
That one is indeed better. Interesting how my default ones have these problems.
Maybe I should spin up an instance on my VPS as well, when I find the time.
edit: Thanks for sharing, btw! ^^
it's very easy to setup. for me it took me all of like 5minutes via docker and like I said I didn't change much at all, if anything really.
The "easy things to set up" are just currently piling up. ;)
