I really dislike this argument. Just because it’s “their country, their rules” doesn’t not make it an issue? Especially when it comes to privacy concerns. Privacy concerns are universal. There are a plethora of serious issues that are not defended by “national sovereignty”. If that was the case we should just turn a blind eye to North Korea, right?
Yes, because niche communities are much smaller here if not non-existant.

Thanks, I definitely prefer this alternative. How does searxng work in general?
Kagi has definitely been on my radar, but it sounds a bit weird (for lack of a better word) to pay for search. I’ve never even thought about it. Maybe it’s worth it…
Beautiful.
Yeah it’s for sure an issue in the rest of the world too. Not discounting that
