OSS, local llm, SearXNG. I likey, is there a demo ? SearXNG via VPN has helped unshittifying my search, but GIGO still applies.
15 0 ReplyDumb question, why do you need VPN to use SearxNG?
2 0 ReplyYou don't, I like it coz it minimizes profiling for the component search engines, and gluetun is right there, just point SearxNG at the proxy. I still get reasonable localized results by chosing a nearby exit node.
4 0 ReplyI mean, you probably don't. But any particular instance CAN be collecting IPs and selling them. Or their security could be compromised.
This is without me knowing a ton about this specific piece of software.
Aside from that, I don't toggle my VPN on and off on a per-site basis.
3 0 ReplyOk, now I understand what OP meant.
However, I use my own SearxNG instance, so I guess I never thought about it that way.
