Eh, there’s not really a better/worse between Gitea and ForgeJo. Gitea is targeting business customers, ForgeJo is targeting the open source community.

Yes, I’m using that after a short foray into Pixelfed. And together with @mczachurski@mastodon.social 's Impressia iOS app it’s a really good experience.

You can tune SearXNG results in a similar way. There’s just no easy UI for it.
And yes, it’s often slower than commercially available search engines - but it’s completely free, without trackers, and it’s combining results from various different engines. I can live with that.

Residential IP (runs in a Docker container on a Raspberry Pi 5 here), pretty much vanilla (apart from Marginalia).

Kagi is still $10+tax a month. That’s $120 a year (plus tax).
SearXNG is $0 and a few minutes of my time whenever I tweak the configuration.

No problems with my SearXNG here at all (just have to look into Qwant): Image
- Comment on Self-hosted keypass fork recommendation 2 weeks ago:
That’s what I settled for as well. Keeping my
*.kdbxfile in iCloud, doing nightly backups to my NAS, and using Strongbox as a client (there’s also KeePassium with similar features) - which beautifully integrates into Apple’s AutoFill API, so it feels native - i.e. as if you’re using Apple’s Passwords app. And I can access all passwords from Windows using KeePassXC as well. - Comment on Vaultwarden while allowing family emergency access 2 weeks ago:
If you host it on a VPS and stop paying the invoices, it’ll go down anyway. However, AFAIK, Bitwarden client apps cache all passwords - so your family would still be able to access them, but there would be no sync back, of course.
Have you considered using something like a KeePass database on a shared drive? Most modern client apps can sync changes seamlessly and there are browser plugins for all the major browsers.

- Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week? 4 weeks ago:
I’ve reached Halo 4 from the Halo: Master Chief Collection and look to finish it in the next 2 days. Not sure I can recommend it, though. Especially earlier Halo games were pretty … well, not for me.
- Comment on OpenWRT router 6 months ago:
Check out GL.iNet products. They’re all based on OpenWrt with a more beginner-friendly GUI on top. (LuCi can be installed via a few clicks.) And very affordable. Some can be flashed to vanilla OpenWrt as well.

Same here. Once in a while I update the config with all the changed engines. But that’s about it.
- Comment on Tempo – An open source music client for Subsonic with Android Auto support, now with continuous playback, new codec support and more! 1 year ago:
Well, it’s not a protocol, Subsonic is an app that became pretty famous in the MP3 era and had a nice API for which various clients were developed.
The source code was Open Source in the early days which was forked into e.g. AirSonic.
Both projects are dormant for a few years now. That’s why new ones have emerged that simulate the same API so all the client apps can still be used with them.

Ah, so alternative implementations. I’ve still got a license for the original Subsonic, but that hasn’t been updated in years by now.

Subsonic? Is this still a thing?
