Don’t know if this is the right comm. Let me know if there’s a better one.

Inthe last few days I noticed that the results of some public searxng instances has gotten way worse (mostly cyrillic/chinese text when searching english text with :en).

Does anyone else have that problem? Die google start the next anti-consumer tactic to push their AI garbage?

    I think it’s pretty obvious that it’s not their doing and rather downstream search APIs. I’d reach out to their development team.

      Yeah, that’s what I figured. I wanted to ask in a “lower stakes” forum first, though. To find out if the issue is already known.

      Just not to annoy the devs.
