Using Searxng

There are other ways to self-host searxng, but I am using my truenas scale to create a searxng instance and use a dedicated subdomain.

I also make the default search engine in my browser pointed to that subdomain.

Essentially it is a meta search.

I use docker, because of course I do. It’s just so easy when I need to move it around. And it’s a part of one of my docker-compose master files so it lives with a load of other containers in one file.

I have thought about moving some of this stuff to a server running NixOS and going away from docker, tho
