Opinions for Searx?
Posted: 2017-09-06 22:35
Hi!
I'm sure that everyone knows of DuckDuckGo and StartPage.
I suppose it's a matter of personal taste, but seems to me that StartPage is the better option (since it's based outside US).
Does anyone use SearX? (https://asciimoo.github.io/searx/).
Seems very promising to me, but has anyone experience with it?
How it compares, with the above mentioned?
An interesting fact, is that it has several "instances" you can choose from, or even Searxes (for picking a random one).
(https://github.com/asciimoo/searx/wiki/Searx-instances).
What do you think about selecting an instance?
Just with server's geographic location?
Do you trust the person (or company) who owns the server?
Or which one will you trust and why?
I suppose, compiling and running it on your own machine is the better option, but isn't for the average Joe (so you can't suggest it, to your friends).
Well...what's your opinion?
