A self-hosted private and anonymous [metasearch engine](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metasearch_engine), that aims to be more resource effichent and scalable. Decentralized services are nice, but juming between instances when one just stops working for some reason is just inconvenient. So thats why this engine can do both, you can self-hoste it or use [officiall instance](https://search.spitfirebrowser.com/).
## Comparison to other search engines

[1]: It does not rely on 3rd-party libs for webscraping like [Selenium](https://www.javatpoint.com/selenium-webdriver), but it uses other search instalces like LibreX as fallback.
