Hey, I’m in the way of building my homelab already thinking of some apps to run on it… Truenas in a VM, a Debian VM to run docker. And on this point, do you a have some docker apps recommandations? Write down all the apps that worth looking at them 👇👇
Why do you host your SearXng?
Custom default settings, speed, and reliability (not IP blacklisted)
But it fetches results directly from google so it is related to only you between hundreds people with public one
I don’t fetch from google. Also a VPN does wonders for that.
Oh yeah the vpn ! But where so you fetch from?
(not OP but same boat) Doesn’t really matter to me because google knows my servers external IP which is a non-issue: I don’t expect google to try to attack me individually but crawl data about me. There is no automatic link between my server and my personal browsing habits.
In terms of attack vector vs ease of use , self hosting searxng is a nobrainer for me - but I do have an external server available for things like that anyway so no additional overhead needed.
