I do and I like the results? Like, I get how we have to be cautious with closed-source private services. This just reads to me as clickbait to put down on people that use kagi lol. Also searxng isn’t really private either as you can’t be sure what your instance is actually running, and self-hosting just links everything to your IP as other people mentioned…

As long as no socks are involved you’re good.

Salud!

You might have a point with this one. In fact, there are a ton of private companies already successfully running public transport systems. I think most people (myself included) just wouldn’t trust a company like Uber for this kind of job. I guess in the meantime we can be happy for (potentially) more bus routes but still weary.
