I want to use SearxNG as my daily driver, and I added three instances to my browser’s search engines list. However, I find that all three are down whenever I try to use it, and I inevitably have to look at the list of instances and click the top one just to perform one search. Is there a way to “auto-route” my search through the most reliable instance or something?
My solution to this was to run my own private instance. It’s very easy with docker-compose.
Doesn’t this defeat the privacy of searx because it’s coming from a single IP and a single user?
Does that help with the engine connection errors?

I’ve never thought of it like that. Another service for the homelab to run.
Can that be done on a mobile device?
You could in theory but hosting it on dedicated hardware will be a much better experience.
