Been trying to get away from DuckDuckGo because of their support of "AI" stuff, but come on, one of these isn't even in English, and that's what I have my language set to.

Search result from Searx Belgium for "Piefed" that instead shows multiple results for ChatGPT, with one of them appearing to be in Spanish.

Did you read this part at all?

I'm pretty sure the answer is no.

I could understand your point if they were literally the only option But they're not. So why choose the worst option when better exist?

    Oh I read it, and don't care. Because all y'all have done is go on about how bad of a person I am for using a search engine, but no mention of any of these "great alternatives" I would love to hear some of these great alternatives that you speak of. If they can provide a better searching experience then I'd be happy to give them a shot.

    Brave search does what I need it to so if another does it better I'd switch. But oh no my searches contribute pennies to someone bad that uses said pennies to make their browser worse to use. I have bigger things to worry about than a CEO whose ideals don't effect the thing I'm using (just now seeing the separate comment thread about selling search data)

    Edit: I've been interacting from replies tab so I haven't seen any of the other context added to the overall discussion. Do you have any suggestions for a replacement that gives good quality web and image results? That's one thing that I can never find when I was degoogling was many search engines that could compete on image search.
