minus-squaretomsh@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·11 months agoWhy not change your search engine and set up a SearX instance? You can find all instances here: https://searx.space. For example, I have set it up like this: https://search.inetol.net/search?q=%s&category_general=1&language=en&time_range=&safesearch=0&theme=simple, and it works wonders. Results are still mostly from Google, or you can configure it to be whatever you want.
