Holy shit what a gamechanger
>>108797620I want to start hosting my own searX instance but idk where to start.
>>108797620i'd fucking love it more if the people hosting these instances could keep their shit running for more then a week>>108797624piss easy and if you can't find how then kill yourself
>>108797624Ask an LLM or Google it. But for a bit of spoon feeding: where) old laptop w/ Linux installed + docker (could use your main computer with docker as well. docker works on Linux, Mac, and Windows w/ WSL2)how) follow relevant tutorial(s) until it works
>sear ecks nigI will not use your search engine.
>>108797732>notnow*fuck
if you self-host this (and you're the only one using it) then are you not just using google/ddg/startpage with extra steps? the benefit of the public instances as far as i can tell is that my searches are mixed in with everybody else's so that they are harder to track
>>108797620oops wrong pic
>>108797760The searches go through Tor anyway, so privacy is at least a fair bit beter. They could find you if they really tried, though.Personally, I like it as:1. A measure against enshittification of google search2. Supplementation of worse indexing

>>108799722NTA but fuck off.
>>108798752whats wrong with docker
>>108798752Nothing is preventing you from installing and setting it up manually.
>>108797620Just slapped it onto my home server, honestly its very cool and I'll enjoy having a one click anonymous search option that minimizes my search footprint. I should probably look more into its settings but just the basekit should be enough
>>108802073Everything. Not only is it buggy as fuck and has a very interesting history to read about on that end, it also adds a huge overhead to everything in the best of cases (i.e. when not running on wangblows, where it not only has the usual overhead but also has to do virtualization).
