much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
Give Whoogle a try. Just choose an instance; or, you can combine it with Farside. This way it will choose the best instance for you.
Can Farside be used for the browser search box or do you mean visit Farside as a one-time thing to find an instance?
I'm not sure I'm following, so I'll answer the question for both of the ways I can interpret that question.
If you mean to use
site:
operator in your , I don't think you can.You can use it to choose your instance once, but why not to always use it?
You can use it in the URL bar. Except the domain itself, the rest of the URL is remaining the same.
https://gооglе.соm/search?q=nyan%20cat would become https://farside.link/whoogle/search?q=nyan%20cat.
(You can do https://search.garudalinux.org/search?q=nyan%20cat, but Farside is fantastic.)
Whoa that's awesome! Think this might be a better solution than LibRedirect for me.
I forgot to mention, it gives you Google results without tracking, or any ads.
