RE: potential astroturfing (my comment last time); from my comment downthread that one:

Anytime [paid search engines] are mentioned I suppose I’ll jump in and say…SearXNG is a popular non-commercial alternative. I wanted to throw Grasp in to give a commercial competitor a shout but they’ve “paused”.

Update on Grasp:

We will be back soon and will open-source our code.

Neat, wonder if SearXNG x Grasp would be synergistic.

I am also using SearcXNG and the search results are usually good even though sometimes on the light side and I still have to resort to other search engines.

Make sure to enable more engines in the settings
