I used to self-host searxng for a while, but somehow the search results were always off and mixed with to much non-relevant results :/.
It’s not about searxng itself… Rather how the most relevant info gets drown into AI slope and non-sense bullshit. The best blogposts/info are transmitted from people to people…
I’m kinda sad to admit that stupid AI “solved” this issue and had better results :/
Most of its just AI generated websites. Search for any topic and you’re likely to get 50 AI generated website that give a similar bulletpoint presentation of what search item X is according to the AI that generated the site.

I don’t know any other search that lets you block urls from results. Blocking stuff like social media and Amazon cleans up the results very well.
I mean, getting non-relevant results happens with every search engine anymore.
The days of your search results being relevant, and what you want on the first page, are long dead thanks to SEO and other factors.
Yeah you’re right ! However, ages ago, I still remember how you could go to page 20+ and still find some really interesting things !
Here, past page 2 it’s just some random shit…

Yeah that’s what I meant by “random” shit ! 😁
