The only con is that its super slow with many engines enabled…

Are you using a public instance? I selfhost mine and don’t notice it being very slow

Mine is selfhosted as well. I enabled many engines (Google, Bing, DDG, Yahoo, Naver, Qwant, Brave, a few more) and a single search query takes about 8 to 10 seconds. I have pretty fast internet connection, it would be great if I can make it faster lol. I’m using DDG when I need a quick search due to that.

8 to 10s sounds glacial. Are you running this in a regular PC or an SBC?
