  Searching. XNG makes the “Ching” sound in some languages.

  Probably the last one, I guess it’s kinda like nginx

  I’ve never thought about it until now, so thanks for that…

  I’ve said it in my head as “Seer” and then the letters X N G. I didn’t even CONSIDER part of it is supposed to sound like “search”…

    Same here. XNG isn’t pronouncable in english, so it will always be Seer X N G for me

  I pronounce it like it’s spelled, searksng.

  So…I guess it kinda seems like a .gif vs .gif sorta situation, we’ll never come to a consensus, there will forever be disparate camps chuckling under their breath at all the “idiots” that can’t even pronounce SearXNG right…the fools…

  Well, guess I’ll sleep on it and join a camp some day… le sigh
