Can I add search engines to Safari (beyond the 5 that are selectable in settings)?

I want to use different search engines other than Duckduckgo, Google, Yahoo, Ecosia and Bing, but I can't see how this is possible in the Safari settings as there doesn't appear to be a way to add my own search engine. I would like to use a Searx instance as my default, for example. Or even Startpage, but it doesn't seem possible to change this in Safari's settings. I'm on macOS Big Sur.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.4

I really don't think that's it. None of the search engines included in the Safari settings are Apple products (Apple doesn't have a search engine as far as I know). So it's a question for Apple.
