User experience
---------------
- Reworked (and still simple) theme:
* Usable on desktop, tablet and mobile.
* Light and dark versions (available in the preferences).
* Right-to-left language support.
* `Screenshots <https://dev.searxng.org/screenshots.html>`_
- The translations are up to date, you can contribute on `Weblate`_
- The preferences page has been updated:
* Browse which engines are reliable or not.
* Engines are grouped inside each tab.
* Each engine has a description.
- Thanks to the anonymous metrics, it is easier to report malfunctioning engines,
so they get fixed quicker
- `Turn off metrics on the server
<https://docs.searxng.org/admin/engines/settings.html#general>`_ if you don't want them recorded.
- Administrators can `block and/or replace the URLs in the search results
