Im a massive proponent of FOSS, But I have not heard a single sustainable FOSS model for maintaining free search engines. It just takes so much capital to operate.

I think a paid model is much better than a privacy disrespecting / ad driven one.

if its individually paid, you don't have privacy.

It is if they dont store search queries, which they claim they dont. I have no reason to distrust them.

By that logic, brave, duck duck go, start page, qwant, and mojeek could also just be lying.
