Im noticing its harder and harder to find things on google. Searching for a companies quarterly profits, cost of medical care for all per capita, and othet economic details are all getting more and more buried in google. Just asking how other contries do their social programs results in us based opionion articles…like wtf are we even doing.
I understand scrolling and indexing sites is an enormous undertaking. Is there currently a federated open source search engine? If not is their a potential to create one?
Is there a trustworthy private option?

Seems to be using searXNG. Routes the search query to different instances
yes, lot of folks dont know where to start with searxng so this is nice and simple and just works
This is actually super cool.
I gotta shout out trom when I can, they’re doing great work
wow, thanks for sharing, that’s awesome
Awsome thank you!
This probably doesn’t help immediately, but I’ve been working on a platform that does federated search (among other things) for the last year. It’s in private friends-and-family testing and won’t be available for general use for at least a couple more months.
I haven’t even decided on a name yet, but I promise to make a lot of noise about it once it’s in public beta
Foogle
Here’s one Mwmbl
A whole bunch of alternatives here, a few federated, quite a few open source:

Thank you! Thats a hell of a big list!
You’re welcome. I’m still trying out a few, including Yep and the SearchXNG instance that comes built into Firedragon browser.
Damn you guys sure have a big list of search engines
