I remember regularly using multiple search engines back in the day.
I would use yahoo, altavista, hotbot and excite and get varied results depending on what I searched.
I have been using DDG exclusively for years with good result, but it appears I need to find a couple of other search engines to work into the mix.
Searx kinda shoves a bunch of different search engines together into a frankenstein's monster. Although I think not all instances have all the search engines enabled.
You can limit the search engines used with stuff like !ddg or !google in your search.
if it comes down to torrent and piracy then Yandex is far far ahead than any other search engine!
