Firefox

Suggestions do not appear in Firefox.

Firefox's console has a message about a timeout:

Ctrl-Shift-J

The timeout set in the stated file appears to be:

view-source:resource://gre/modules/SearchSuggestionController.sys.mjs

const REMOTE_TIMEOUT_DEFAULT = 500; // maximum time (ms) to wait before giving up on a remote suggestions

For me, https://vocadb.net/api/entries?nameMatchMode=Auto&query=初音ミク has a response time of approximately 2 seconds.

Chrome

Suggestions do not appear in Chromium, but I don't know how to investigate further

Since this is (presumably) a physical/monetary server issue for a niche feature that browser makers are suppressing, maybe this is a WONTFIX?

@szc126 It doesn't seem like there is a way to modify the firefox suggestion timeout. Therefore the only solution seems to be to optimize the search performance.

As a side note, I'm also not sure if the API even follows the expected suggestion API response format.
