Some Searx engines have mullvad's search engine as an available source.
Oh neat, I'll have to swap searx to use it!
My problem is that, last I checked, Searx(dot)be don't have that turned on as a default and after a while I got tired of going into preferences and changing everything every time I open the browser. Especially when I'm clearing sire data and cookies every time I close the browser.
I am absolutely gonna set up my own instance in the future to solve this problem when I can, but until then I'll end up sticking with the next best thing I can think of, which is Mullvad.
I have the "URL to restore your preferences in another browser" bookmarked for easy access. I wish Firefox can handle that when adding a custom search engine, but this is good enough.
