The instances that give the best results seem to also get throttled pretty often on the source search engines, to the point of near uselessness.

Thinking of hosting my own, but the maintenance seems pretty involved according to the docs.

What’s your experience been like?

Edit: all right y’all, thanks for the feedback. I’m going to spin up an instance.

    I tried it couple of months ago for a couple of weeks straight, but as someone who searches in multiple languages it just didnt do the job very well. I looked up multiple guides and tried to configure it to my best ability but the results just were not great. For search now I’m completely addicted to Kagi, by far the most polished and best results.

    I will give it a try in the future when i acquire a GPU for AI, I will then pair SearXNG with OpenWebUI, think that will be a fun project!
