This is exactly what I came here to find. Thank you for posting it. If I can be so bold selfhosters should really be leaning this way searxng is great but it still uses big tech.
The other thing we need is a way to identify good crawling agents or *smol agents over corporate bots that just steal content.
If selfhosters can unite and build a good index perhaps searching can go back to the way it was vs a vector to sell you more and collect your data.

You know what else I like ? Fossil
It’s a FOSS alternative to Git itself, their official site itself is a self-hosted instance of Fossil.
