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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Whoogle: How can I use the preferences URL? (discuss.tchncs.de)

Hello,

I would like to use the URL of Whoogle's settings so that I can use different settings.

How can I save and use the settings via the URL?

https://tst.us?preferences=uG8MBIJwHdiwDp1QdzDg92Jvu-uXf9XXc4pizSjScK0YUIsWiEyA-_U3hz5hFvMYUeiUWWOdbNNUzMuFyMZNVFye-vhkKn2L_sXt5XNyOvkpjwBhPP2MsakXYPsw227zq00CMwioW33qsIsoNbTFDCw9VkCLrGLHxYCq3D9ZtT53ho0glFtjopDko5ucuPeYJU7QbyQWbNAT0xxeTqiXDLneMMDXCiexiWcjc0B4F4msP7JwS605uJuHFJHCHwcDQCa6VHw==

(tst.us does not exist, it is a sample.

Unfortunately, it has no effect on the settings if I use this URL for the search.

It says right above that box that it requires the WHOOGLE_CONFIG_PREFERENCES_KEY or that option will be ignored. My guess is that you have to manually edit some config file to turn that key on, or generate an encryption key yourself that you provide through editing a config and adding it to that line.

Edit: you probably need to add your own domain or IP as the root URL too.
