We're only talking about hosting because you offered it up as a way of accessing it for "free".

If you want to use Google, you have to pay the same as for using Lemmy, or searxNG, zero.

Nope. With Google, you pay with your data. With Lemmy or SearxNG, you pay with money, or you enjoy the benefits of socializing the cost (just like "free" healthcare)

Neither are free.

Fine, whatever. You can't ever search on SearxNG without paying. You win.

I've seen your comment history and it's full of negative comments because you're just trolling everyone. My only mistake in this conversation has been to reply to you when you've only been saying things you don't even believe yourself just to troll me. Sigh.
