Thank you, that helped :)
I am not entirely sure why you need to do all that but I am trying a different approach and allowing a small entrypoint to set
PGIDandPUID(which you should be able to set as env variables in the docker-compose.yml file).This should allow you to run the app as whatever user you wish. It works for me locally, it’s currently on the
developimage if you wanna give it a spin and report back. Otherwise it’ll be added in the next release.Defaults are still

Hey sorry for the delay, dealing with a lot right now, but I didn’t forget about it.
1 - Fixed this, the api key is now only forwarded if the destination hostname matches the plugin’s stored url. 2 - As I was saying, the allowlist is opt-in by design (null = allow all), and plugins legitimately need to make arbitrary outbound requests. Enforcing it globally would break the plugin system. 3 - Fixed this, it was quite simple 4 - I have added an env var (DEGOOG_DISTRUST_PROXY), if set to true it’ll make it so all users share the same rate limit regardless of their IPs, I left it as an opt in as most users currently running it are only keeping it private behind their own in house reverse proxies. This will be handy for a public instance for example 5 - Extension settings modal now correctly sends x-settings-token on save. 6 - As I said, auth is intentionally lax until a more structured auth system is added, may need to be a few weeks after stable is live, after all there’s no real auth and the setting password protected and private view should be secure enough as it is
btw all this is not live yet, it’ll be sent live with the next release ♥

Madness, wasn’t expected to get any coverage for it until it was out of beta 😆
- Comment on Probably want to stop using Booklore... 3 weeks ago:
Thanks, I’ll individually look into all of these ♥️ I’ll say some of them are more conscious compromises for the sake of an open scalable system where third party extensions can truly edit anything (intentionally) and everything around Auth/secure cookie is also fairly lax due to the fact the Auth is just a protection for the settings (which literally stop the settings from being served by the client), in the moment I decide to add some more structured Auth system/maybe users I’ll look into proper secure cookie handling.
This is an awesome report, thank you so much for sharing it!!!

degoog Dev here, definitely not vibecoded. Would you be able to tell me all these whack of privacy issues? I thought I had everything covered, but if you found something concerning it’d be nice to know before I get it out of beta :)
- Comment on [beta] degoog - search engine aggregator 4 weeks ago:
Hey, not sure what you mean, it works perfectly fine as rootless. Are you using docker or podman? Someone else had this issue with podman and we couldn’t figure out why it was different for them.
Everyone else is running this as user
1000, which is what the standard compose requires? - Comment on [beta] degoog - search engine aggregator 4 weeks ago:
Aw thank you so much for giving it a try and leaving such a nice feedback ♥️ I am searching in a slightly different way than searxng, can’t promise it’ll work forever but for now it seems to be doing the trick ♥️ I have some more improvements to the search system coming with the next release as Bing does get blocked quite often for me.
P.s. have you been using any extensions? If so what’s your fave so far? Haha

Hi, this needs to be selfhosted in order for you to use it, it’s not an app :) You can definitely use it from IOS once you have it running tho
- Comment on [beta] degoog - search engine aggregator 4 weeks ago:
Hey thank you!
The issue with GitHub alternatives is the lack of runners/pipelines and restricting functionalities.
Gitlab is a good alternative but I use it for work and having two accounts juggling between work/personal projects is a recipe for disaster.
I spent a bit of time on codeberg and I am checking it out, happy to push the repo there too, but they don’t seem to provide pipeline options, so I wouldn’t be able to build the docker image there like I do on GitHub :)
Btw whilst I do believe into the whole Microsoft scraping projects to train AI regardless of licenses, I wouldn’t say they are hostile towards open source. They actually are extremely for it, vscode is free and one of the best IDEs out there for example, GitHub free plan is VERY generous and they have a whole FREE coding academy with extremely in-depth courses on how to learn programming and various niche topics. And they integrated wsl to seamlessly run Linux commands within windows, which I never thought I’d see happen (been there for years, but I’m just giving you examples).

Thank you! I mean, I am not trying to compete with Google, maybe when I release out of beta I’ll let the community that’s slowly creating around it decide a new name, we’ll see ♥️ wouldn’t be the first time I do that with my apps :)
- Comment on [beta] degoog - search engine aggregator 4 weeks ago:
Thank you so much!! Let me know if you run into any issue, it’s fairly stable for a beta, but I’m sure there’s a ton of quirks that still need sorting ❤

Oh that’s quite nice actually! Never seen it! Suppose it’s very minimal tho, I’ll do some market research to scope the competition lol I feel like more alternatives make a better internet, if you ask me :)
p.s. thank you! sorted out the readme, my bad

I can see a dogdog theme about to happen 🤣
- Comment on [beta] degoog - search engine aggregator 4 weeks ago:
Nice! Thank you! Let me know how you get on! :)
- Comment on [beta] degoog - search engine aggregator 4 weeks ago:
Ow that’s a big compliment, thank you! I think it’s just different rather than better as it focuses on user experience more than niche features. It’s meant to be an easy way to move out of using Google daily, without too much of a learning curve
Glad you are enjoying it ♥️
- Comment on [beta] degoog - search engine aggregator 4 weeks ago:
Hey! If you go to settings -> store you will find all the plugins/themes/engines I made and use the docs/existing plugins as examples to make your own, I tried to build a variety of them to cover most aspects of customisations ♥️
Glad you like it! I saw you joined discord so feel free to ping me for more direct questions :)
- Comment on [beta] degoog - search engine aggregator 4 weeks ago:
Yaaas! Let me know how you get on with it ♥️
- Comment on [beta] degoog - search engine aggregator 4 weeks ago:
YES! Customisation is the main reason why I went out of my way to build it, and other stuff I listed in another comment in the thread :)
Thank you, if you ever end up making a store with your own plugins/themes and so on just lemme know and I’ll add it to the repo, it’d be cool to have a list of available stores already in the beta version, so when I go out of beta it’ll feel like a much more mature product <3

lol it’s a play on the cron syntax, the
*is aoin the name/logo - Comment on [beta] degoog - search engine aggregator 4 weeks ago:
Yes, I think that’s also key, the more people using the same instance the more likely it’ll be to get banned, but again, rotating proxy is key to this I suppose
- Comment on [beta] degoog - search engine aggregator 4 weeks ago:
Hey! Well, aside from rotating multiple user agents, have a cheeky retry and having a “retry” button next to each engine I also heavily cache results so that for 12 hours the same query will give you the same results from cache. You can always invalidate cache from the settings.
Another thing you can also do is add multiple proxy that rotate on each request, traffic goes through proxy urls and you don’t get hit with rate limiting (again, proxy settings are in the settings tab - you can find free ones around).
So far I haven’t been rate limited by google yet, not gonna claim it won’t happen as it probably will, it’s the nature of the tool, but finger crossed so far so good.
- Comment on New ntfy.sh v2.18.0 was written by AI 4 weeks ago:
Yeah, I mean, with or without AI, I’ve always only had a big pull request for releases, from a stable release branch into the main branch, the release branch would be a merge of various branches or just be worked on directly on various stages.
One big pull request doesn’t really mean anything.
- Comment on [beta] degoog - search engine aggregator 4 weeks ago:
I keep getting results in different languages, a lot of my engines get rejected, it’s quite heavy and building extensions for it is fairly complex. They also recently restructured their own codebase, which means most of my customisation didn’t work anymore, which is when I decided to build my own instead of re-making all the customisations from scratch.
This is again very personal issues and specific to my use case frankly, and it could be that I wasn’t doing customisations right, but the way my brain works is to make something from scratch and learn the ins and out of it, so I just went for it.
I guess it also is styled more to my linking (plus theming is very extensive) and I wanted to create something that slots things in if wanted (see tmdb above results and rss on the homepage)

Nice!
The only drawback I have had for heavily customising it is that it’s now not compatible with the latest versions, unfortunately they’ve re-structured their codebase and I frankly don’t have the time to re-do all my hard work, so I’ve been running a very old (but extremely stable) version of it lol

So relatable… haha
Thanks so much for you work and rest assured amongst the negativity you may receive in certain corners of the web, there are people truly appreciative of yours, and others like you, hard work.
Thank YOU! I am so glad you found Jotty useful and resonated with it!
