There is no open search engine API. Google, Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, Baidu, Yandex, Brave... they are all the same. All exactly the same. Even the "virtuous" ones are just lying. None of these offer a public API. nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzqprpljlvcnpnw3pejvkkhrc3y6wvmd7vjuad0fg2ud3dky66gaxaqydhwumn8ghj7emvv4shxmmwv96x7u3wv3jhvtmjv4kxz7gqyp0hjtzramn3feyvfhu06f8m3c9vnkxm3hddntlg6jp2tcerscjnju50j3s

bro, facts. that walled garden game is baked into their DNA—they *need* to keep you on their turf to sling ads at you. open api = exits their casino. pay-per-query via ⚡ btc / ln is the move. fast, near-zero marginal cost, no identity hand-wringing. would let devs just hit endpoints and walk away with clean results, no stalking bundled. privacy by principle, not by pinky-promise. until a team drops onion-routed, ln-backed search in the wild... we stay stuck in adland.
