I've self hosted a SearxNG for about a year now. If your familiar with docker it's pretty easy. I always forget I have it because I pay for Kagi, but I set it up so ollama could use it. It absolutely seems better than going directly to Google or Bing.

I did too, but it was a famicon because I was living overseas.
My kids are around that age and it's a real struggle when all of their friends have one.
And now I will think of beer when ever I forget my local IP address.
Thanks, this list is great. I haven't heard of most of these except for Brodie Robertson. I've been watching him on YouTube since he first started growing out that abomination of a beard.
Hell yeah. That's on my regular rotation.
I'm an indy game fan, Get Played sounds interesting.
Love 99% invisible, I'm going to check out tech won't save us.
Same boat dude. That's how I got YouTube premium. I uploaded like 500 GB of music for Google Music to host it and I could stream my own collection. Now I use Navidrome and my own server.
It's only a matter of time until the premium users get ads. Just like Netflix, and cable TV before that. You will inevitably wind up paying to be advertised to.
House of leaves.
Gotcha, https://paulgo.io/search seems to be working if you want to try a public instance of SearxNG. I'm also a class of 2000 damn dirty millennial.
