How did you change the logo? I tried to do that on my instance and failed miserably. Running it through docker.
Comment on Microsoft Bing is trying to spoof Google UI when people search Google.com
gregor@gregtech.eu 1 year agoI host my own SearXNG instance, which miiiight be a bit of a bad idea because the anonymity of the crowd disappears but hosting your own services is way too cool to ignore. It’s at search.gregtech.eu in case anyone wants to use it.

What I don’t like about SearXNG (aside of no favicons/icons I think) is that it doesn’t show the content of what I am looking for in the browser desktop tabs, if I search for “Linux” in the tab it is only shown “SearXNG” instead of what I am searching for… That definitely kills my browsing habits… I hope I am being clear (can’t post a screenshot right now), also unsure if it was the same with mobile browsers.

It supports favicons now, it has to be enabled by the instance.

I can set up a favicon resolver on my instance. I’ll do it today.

Thank you, I didn’t even know it was possible.
I am gonna try it later, happy spying /j

You can control that with a setting. In Settings - Privacy, turn on “Query in the page’s title.”
My instance has a magnifying glass as the favicon.

Thank you, totally missed this then 😄
cyberwolfie@lemmy.ml 1 year ago
That is configurable. Settings > Privacy > Query in the page’s title
kratoz29@lemm.ee 1 year ago
Oh, so it was a privacy feature then? Neat!

You know your content is certainly used to train LLMs ?

So then you can track my searches?
gregor@gregtech.eu 1 year ago
I guess I could technically do that, but I really don’t give a f what people search for on my searxng instance. Plus, Google and the likes have an incentive to use your searches for advertising and building a profile on you.

If people search for illegal content does that get you in trouble?
gregor@gregtech.eu 1 year ago
I mean, none of that content is on my server, and the search engines searxng indexes probably so their best to remove illegal stuff.
I really hope I don’t get in trouble for anything, but I doubt I will. I have a grand Total of like 5 users.

Hahha GregSearX I love it!
I’ve used searX in the past and found it was decent but personally I am going to stick with duckduckgo because it just works better for my needs (especially since I’m on mobile).

This is nothing like GregTech! Where’s the tedious microcrafting to enjoy before every search?
