Why is every Searx instance down when I try to use it?

I want to use SearxNG as my daily driver, and I added three instances to my browser’s search engines list. However, I find that all three are down whenever I try to use it, and I inevitably have to look at the list of instances and click the top one just to perform one search. Is there a way to “auto-route” my search...

Mobile or desktop? Libredirect on desktop allows you to enable a ton of pre-populated Searx instances in the Search category, so it will use any of the enabled instances in your list.

I don’t believe it picks based on reliability but it at least saves you the time of manually picking/editing your instances. If one is troublesome, just remove it from the list.
