Why people still use it is beyond me.

Because Google has literally poisoned the internet to be the de facto SEO optimization goal. Even if Google were to suddenly disappear, everything is so optimized forngoogle's algorithm that any replacements are just going to favor the SEO already done by everyone.

The abusive adware company can still sometimes kill it with vague searches.

(Still too lazy to properly catalog the daily occurrences such as above.)

SearXNG proxying Google still isn’t as good sometimes for some reason (maybe search bubbling even in private browsing w/VPN). Might pay for search someday to avoid falling back to Google.
