Everything is great, but it's proprietary.(-1 star)
It's a good search engine that cares about privacy. They do censor content that they think is appropriate for children. I am not against that per se, however, parents can do this on their own with DNS or other means.
It's also less easy to trust its privacy when it's proprietary.
Swiss laws also many not be all they are cracked up to be in terms of privacy protections: https://www.fedlex.admin.ch/eli/cc/2017/494/en

Swisscows is the best search alternative! Respect privacy and don't collect any data. The search results are pretty good und much better than DGG for example.
