I needed to reinstall Firefox on this computer, so I started up Chrome to download the latest version and it blocked the download as unsafe! I had to manually tell it to download anyway.

Fuck Chrome. I’m glad I only used it to download one file and went back to Firefox.

    I got hit with a low-res captcha

    Yeah, that’s not great. But I never was really happy with SearXNG. Every now and then I had to switch back to DDG because the results were subpar. Also my instance was not available semi-frequently. If 4get works better I’d be willing to solve a captcha every 100 queries, especially since they seem quite reasonable (compared to Google’s captchas).

    Also, the server is in the US, privacy-wise, that’s quite bad.

    There are several instances (https://4get.ca/instances, https://4get.lvkaszus.pl/) and the underlying code is open source (https://git.lolcat.ca/lolcat/4get).
