If you're looking to go even more incognito with your SearXNG setup, here's something MrWazaby put together that includes Gluetun VPN and Authelia: github.com/MrWazaby/searxng-vpn-docker
I just learned about SearXNG just over a week ago and couldn't figure it out how to selfhost this properly. And all of a sudden I see your video, your (very simplified) docker compose file and got it running in no time. I truely appreciate what you do for us homeusers/tinkerers. Thank you very much! Love your work!
SearXNG is great. I've used it exclusively for months now and it's served me perfectly well. I don't think it was mentioned in the video except that the option is pre-checked, but a big selling point is that SearXNG by default strips the tracking data to and from the different search engines it uses.(I could have missed it I'm just waking up having coffee right now lol)
I thought I was the only person to use caddy! Not to be off topic but caddy doesn't get enough love as it's so easy to deploy and automate with ansible/jenkins and a good jinja2 template. Thanks for the video, awesome as usual!
Thank you for yet another great video, I love having new containers to mess with in my homelab. Just an FYI, middle click (if you have a middle mouse button) will open links in a new tab. I use that so I can selectively open new tabs and not open every link in a new tab.
One thing you missed is the save, just saves settings to the cookie on the machine you are using. If you want to set global settings for any device (multiple pcs, mobile, iPad etc) then there is a bit more config needed. A lot of the random engines they have turned on by default create pretty unwanted results, so I have a lot disabled in my global settings.
Had a dyslexic moment when i read your comment and was like, "how did I make something simple complicated?" And then I re-read your comment and realized you had said the exact opposite of what my dumb brain had just read. Thanks for watching and commenting!
The original project (SearX) was pronounced "Sirks" based on this entry in their Github: github.com/searx/searx/issues/1264#issuecomment-393370844 SearXNG, like Paperless-ng, uses "NG" to stand for "Next Generation." It's a fork of the original SearX metasearch engine. So, maybe it was intended to be pronounced "Searching" but, to me, the way I pronounced it makes more sense based on the aforementioned information I just provided.
i’ve been running searxng since the beginning of the year and i love it but i haven’t found a way to change the default search bar on firefox or chrome to my searxng instance. anyone know if this is possible with a third party extension?
Getting the follow error after using yml in portainer Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request. Either the server is overloaded or there is an error in the application.
I've been running this for years, only think I havent got to stick is a custom logo, even with proper volume mapping. Mine seems to run fine without redis
A few people have mentioned running it without redis. It can help speed things up with a little RAM caching, but definitely not a requirement. Thanks for watching and commenting! :)
