      Next step is to make it public to help other people and blend your data/traffic

        Open a search app to the public? So their searches come from my IP address? No fucking way, unless I’m missing something.

        I’m still trying to understand searxng, does it start with nothing and build up its index each time you search? Will your results be rubbish for a while?

          It just culminates results from a bunch of other engines

          It’s basically a proxy for Google and other engines, think of it as a VPN for your searches.

            I see that makes sense. So what does making it public/blending traffic do?

              Makes it harder to fingerprint/differentiate traffic
