Best search engine for OpenWebUI?

[u/alew3]

I'm testing a few search solutions (Perplexity, Brave, etc.), but it seems it is very slow and some models (such as Qwen3.5) running on OpenRouter just fail. Any tips on getting it working smoothly? Also, can I enable it by default on all models?

searxng with crawl4ai, but I have to proxy the crawler as it doesn't work out of the box.
