I have tried none of those that you mentioned, but over heard good things about SearX. Sorry that I can't be more helpful.
I just did a quick dive into this and have some concerns. SearX appears to no longer be maintained and was last updated three years ago. SearXNG was forked to use more recent libraries but there were concerns that those are not always stable or fully vetted. There were also concerns that SearXNG did not follow the same concerns for user privacy. It's a shame that SearX shut down, that one actually sounds like a project I would have jumped on.
I host a SearXNG instance and follow the Matrix channel. Haven't seen anything along those lines.
