Unfortunately, doesn't seem to be open source.
For me personally, the mainstream independent search engine is Brave search, its genuinely good.

SearX is a search aggregator, rather than having its own crawler, and as such a number of its instances getting temp suspensions for running too many requests in too short a time on the various search engines it queries. I still get good enough results from it.
I was hoping to be able to use some esoteric ones, but that doesn't seem possible, unless I've overlooked something.
Being able to aggregate a couple of these up-and-coming engines with result reduplication sounds really neat.
Additionally, this new search site (tuxdex.com) appears to just be a private/anonymous version of their existing search site (websearchengine.net) - although websearchengine.net isn't listed as a source for SearXNG either.
But in terms of a real search engine, I find Brave to be the best.
If didn't use Searx, I would probably be using Brave.
the searx instance I use uses brave and google by default.
That's a feature I like, great for privacy and anonymity, relatively easy to implement, and affords some resistance to bots (who will move on to lower hanging fruit due to the connection set-up overhead)
Hope this new search engine will also offer an onion address.
the Goggles and Discussions features are great.
