Quick question, what would federation provide? How would they have anything to do with a search engine?
Do you mean just not centralized/run by big tech? If so, that wouldn’t necessarily be “federated”, but just self hostable. That way you can host it yourself, if you have the know how/equipment, or you can access someone else’s hosted version (probably for a price).
True and even using a federated search engine would be great
