I am not sure how useful this will be for others, but for me, I run a radio player on my search engine here: https://searchthat.net/tools-radio-player.html and I have links to large stream databases, but at times they might not have what I am looking for, and this is where your tool might come in to fetch the stream.
I see you have "Works best on Chrome or Opera". I am assuming that is because of .m3u8 streams not running correctly. I recommend adding the HLS framework to run these streams. Here is a link to the framework. https://nochev.github.io/hls.js/docs/html/
Anyway, good stuff for me.
There are a lot of them that don't show on the map. If you need to pinpoint where they are, I recommend using this map https://mapgenie.io/hogwarts-legacy/maps/world
Just press hide all and click on the Merlin Trail link to see where they all are. Hope that helps :)
Indeed, the IGPU is helping a lot lol. I did have it native at 4K, but I had a crap load of hitching lag spikes, which annoyed me. That's when I decided to use Intel XeSS, which did a lot using its upscaling options. I guess this game is known for its hitching issues, mostly related to the CPU end of things, from what most say. This is the first game so far on my new rig I had to use upscaling with. Although I haven't played many games on it yet.
Yeah, the 5080 will be a massive bump in performance, and I'll have more flexible room to do what I want.
I don't care for ray tracing. I just want raw performance. So long as the lighting in games doesn't pull a Hogwarts legacy lighting bug lol. For the fuzzy and unnatural, I wonder if that has something to do with Unreal Engine 4. Who knows.
I would rather drop quality before resolution. When that needs to be next, I will do just that, which is being upscaled from 1920x1080 to 4K. So both are being done.
For the framerate. I can't give you a proper number because it's completely lying. There would be no chance in heck I would be playing at 1FPS lol. It feels like it's playing above 60FPS for sure. Although I spent like 40 minutes picking and choosing what I want, just to get a decent play. It's pretty good. No hitches, lag spikes. Still looks crisp. Sure, I am looking for some quality, but you can only push so much from a GPU. I am sure it would be running even better if I dropped the other monitors too, but that's not going to happen. It's time to upgrade, though. Most games are starting to be low by default now.
GTX 1080 at 4k with 3 monitors at 1080p and one at 4K while playing and watching YouTube at the same time. Yeah, it's a bit, but it seems to be fine. Although I am playing the game at the lowest settings possible. Still decent quality. Eventually, I'll be upgrading to an RTX 5080. Meanwhile, this GPU is good for now :)
Yeah, I am seeing it a lot right now in the treasure vaults. I've tried to restart the game, and it still does it. There is a house in FeldCroft that does it too. The house behind Bernard Ndiaye. My only solution is to play it at night. Also found a save bug in one of the homes in Hogsmeade where after you save inside on the top floor and reload the save, the home becomes empty. Found that farming chests lol.
Question
It's in the list above. I want to be clear on ST a bit. In my GDPR, there is my own tracking, but it's turned off by default, "optional". For external API's not all are proxied. Some may be tracked from their source. The main result is Google PSE, which is one of those that is not proxied. ST is a start page hub, where you can change the homepage search bar to any other engine if you like to stay away from the results page.
Not all are general search engines, but "Search" is one of the functions.
My apologies if the about might be off on some of them.

How I've done it in the past is make a backup with Softaculous in cPanel and download that copy, open up local.wp from local.com and build the local version in that. I personally rather cPanel-level backup and restore tools to a plugin. If you do use Softaculous, you can make a clone of your site with that without the need for a local copy.
The best one was killed off thanks to Edge. The Kiwi Browser was the best as it had full support for the Chrome extension store. Sadly it was shut down in favour of Edge which made its own and was way more limited in that category with their choosing of what could be added. I am not fully sure what happened and why the devs stopped but full support for extensions was amazing. I know it had something to do with Edge for sure.
Self-promotion
As a front-end dev, I'll give my feedback. Honest feedback is always important, even if it's good or bad. It helps in the long run.
- Firstly, they're are a ton of functions that do not work from what I am noticing at first glance.
- Not sure what the GitHub and Google login is for, but it's not for me.
- Search results are very slow. Not sure if that is just Wiki-like responses, ok.
User Interface
- UI is pretty bad. I was going to make a sample design of how it could be fixed with CSS, but from looking at the code in the dev tools, I can see you're following 0 standards on classes and IDs. Reminds me of early-day HTML, but inside of id="" or class="".
Also, don't need to have pretty much all divs using the same classes.
- Buttons are too large, icons are pixelated. You could even just use HTML symbols for a lot of it, and you can use the hex code as a replacement.
- Stop using div for pretty much everything. There is other things like <button> <select> <section> <form> <header> <main> <aside> <nav> <footer> and much more.
- Responsive layout is very bad. Large padding, no text size changes, not even clamp.
- General layout might look simple, but not done right.
- Response output is background, does not belong, no proper colour differences or boldness from engine titles vers metadata.
On a positive note, if this is your first site, congrats. We all started somewhere. I have had my ugly UI styles too at points, and we all learn from it. You'll get there one day.
I've been using Google's Custom Search engine on my site as a source for years now as my primary. Well over a decade at this point. The CSE/PCE does not show sponsored things between the results. Very clean. Maybe I am spoiled or just used to a lack of search information, but if I do go to look at Google's main search page or Bing I find them both a mess. I hate things between the results. Not my thing. I'd rather stick with what I have.
But to answer your question, I would choose Google. The reason is that Microsoft forces Bing in your face if you use a custom-added search engine on Edge in: edge://settings/privacy/services/search/searchEngines. I get this message all the time when the browser updates:
"Use Microsoft recommended browser settings"
Microsoft Edge helps keep you protected while you browse by blocking phishing and malware attacks.
- Set Microsoft Bing as your default search engine. The only options are Confirm or later.
I have also had toolbar notifications changing it to Bing all the time, and another pop-up I normally don't see that often, but they keep forcing Bing. Edge also puts banners on the Chrome Store page to use theirs instead. They are very pushy, so for that reason, I'll NEVER use them. Also, their Bing crawler ignores the robots.txt file and even their own console controls. I had to block it completely with Cloudflare. It acted like a greedy website scraper.
That's my two cents. Maybe 5 lol.
Yes, your TSP will only use what it needs, which is around 1.3 to 1.7A and less. Just make sure not to send anything higher than 5V. If you want to learn about the TSP Power Draw, I have a post here about it.

That would explain it. Well, I am here to help. I am sure many others will be glad that their posts will be seen. I have already removed a pile of this spam. r/searchengines looks much better. I'll need to keep up with it. Thanks for letting me help out.
Congrats on getting one. Maybe this site can help give you some ideas, items, and so on. Hope it helps. https://destructiveburn.com/TrimUIHub/
