Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (donβt cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

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
(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.
