I’ve had a good experience with Yacy for the most part! It's great to feel like my searches are private. Sometimes the results are a bit off, and I wonder if they’ll get better with time. I’m sticking around to see!

Yacy is decent but leaves room for improvement. I value the privacy but often find the search experience lacking. Mixed feelings overall as my expectations were higher, but I'm hoping to see positive changes soon!
