I’ve gotten very into self-hosting (on device, not on a server) my own search engine, but searxng is unbearably clunky to make run on my Gentoo OpenRC machine. Two projects stuck out, 4get and omnisearch, but which of these do you think is the best and do you know other ones?


Can you expand upon this? I’ve tried to run YaCy before and I always seem to reach a point where the index becomes too large for my computer to handle, meaning YaCy will crash or refuse to start. I always put this down to my system not having enough ram though. Technically what do you dislike about the program?
