I hadn't used searxng before, so I just tried out a search on a couple different instances, and one instance returned absolutely nothing at all "sorry we didn't find any results" and the other did return results, but kind of average quality results. I did the same search on my daily go to search engine DDG and got high quality helpful results. My query (what I'm hoping to begin tomorrow) "how to build raised garden boxes". Looks like I'll be sticking with ddg for now.
