Why doesn’t firefox use searx.me as its default search engine and doesn’t even offer it as a suggestion, as suggest Bing, Yahoo, Google and others?

    That didn’t work for me, searx homepage would open but it would not run the query. This is how I solved it:

    ~ about:config

    browser.urlbar.update2.engineAliasRefresh = true

    ~ about:preferences#search - Add

    engine name = searx

    engine URL = https://<searx-instance-baseurl>/search?q=%s

    engine alias = @s
