I’ve recently started using a self hosted SearXNG instance but I’m still using the search engines enabled by default (google, duckduckgo and qwant). What search engines do you have enabled or which ones do you feel you’ve gotten the best results with?

    DDG doesn’t like to exclude words from your searches though. It lets you exclude sites using the -site: parameter, but won’t exclude individual words. And it constantly gives me search results that don’t include the words that I’m searching for.
