how exactly does it work ?
does the node connect to the main presearch instance ?
also how does the crawling work, is it similar to yacy ?Good questions - I do not know all the answer yet. Also the mainnet, which this decentralized is also in ramping up phase and underway. My node did for example not yet receive any search job jet. As I understood they are building an own index, but also acting as a meta search engine. Node then will process request to Google, Bing and so on.
