  SearXNG is a free internet metasearch engine which aggregates results from various search services and databases. Users are neither tracked nor profiled.

  

Could you share more about this please?

Some quick reading of SearxNG's docs* and testing out an instance* shows some very good search results.

> If you run your own instance, it's better to share that instance with friends or family so they can dilute your search queries with theirs, and it makes it much harder for your instance to be tracked the same as they'd track you. Or, you can use a public instance which is better for privacy, but worse for security and customizability.

Is there no way to clear all state after each query, or every 24 hours, etc? I'd wonder if sharing with family just means you'd build a closer data association with them. Or, what kind of things do you find important to customise (and why?) that aren't configured by public SearxNG instances?

  Source code for privacytests.org. Includes browser testing code and site rendering.

  

It's not that great (https://privacytests.org/) Brave is pretty ahead when it comes to privacy.

Also the fact that their contract requires them to whitelist Microsoft trackers is something to be wary of.

• brave-browser

  1,367 16,711 9.9 JavaScript

  Brave browser for Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, Windows.

  

It's not that great. Brave is ahead when it comes to privacy and features and does a lot of things differently.

Also the fact that their contract requires them to whitelist Microsoft trackers is something to be wary of.

  uBlock Origin - An efficient blocker for Chromium, Firefox, and Safari. Fast and lean.

Looks like the answer is no, Safari is not supported.

> ..as of 2022, uBlock Origin’s extension is available for several of the most widely used browsers, including: Chrome, Chromium, Edge, Opera, Firefox and all Safari releases prior to 13.

Explanation of the state of uBlock Origin (and other blockers) for Safari - https://github.com/el1t/uBlock-Safari/issues/158

Apparently, the only WebKit-based browser that can run uBO is Orion browser (beta, Mac only).
