I got a private instance going a few months ago and I really like it. It's just a little slow cause it runs on a Pi (my only 24/7 device at the moment). The hostname rewrite feature is cool and I'll have to check out the archive cache feature.

I also use a public instance at work and it's way more effective than the bloated corporate search engines. Super handy for engine or language specific searches too.

Spun up the container about a week ago. Made it my default search in Firefox. So far I've been happy with the quality of the results although I will admit there is a perceptible lag when submitting searches, compared to google/bing/etc.... I imagine that's mostly to do with the fact that it's waiting on multiple search engines to fill my request.

I do like it so far. I figure with some tuning I could get the response time down.
