SearxNG installation is pretty simple

Today I decided to install SearxNG, just to for $h1ts and giggles, and to avoid a little bit of tracking by those creeps at Google and Bing.

I started wit a clean Debian 12 LXC container on my Proxmox server and used the installation script route. I just needed to:

• Create a non-root user . DO NOT call this user searxng, this is the user the install script creates for you, if it already exists, the script will fail
• Add this user to the the sudo group
• Install sudo, git and curl
• Clone the install repo
• Run the install script
• Run the nginx setup script

That's it. The search page will be available in http://<ip-address>/searxng
