Should I be worried about this development?

So far, I’ve tried Stract and 4get, and I’m not impressed with how limited they are - they’re not accurate, and no image and video search is what turns me away from them.

Metasearch engines like SearXNG aren’t that impressive, their results have too many filler results. My experience with manually tweaking their search also did not go well. Any alternatives with good defaults?

    Thanks! I didn’t see that. Relevant bit for convenience:

    we call model providers on your behalf so your personal information (for example, IP address) is not exposed to them. In addition, we have agreements in place with all model providers that further limit how they can use data from these anonymous requests that includes not using Prompts and Outputs to develop or improve their models as well as deleting all information received within 30 days.

    Pretty standard stuff for such services in my experience.

      Yeah, I don’t know how they could be much better. Obviously since they don’t host the model, they’re doing like SearxNG and passing along data for you, but all they can do is remind you not to mention anything personally identifying.

      Edit: well it tried.
