    Ah man, same. Thought I’d give it a go after reading about if from Cory…

    Honestly, for what I search for, DDG is sufficient, and it’s not gonna hassle me about subscriptions.

    What I’d really like to find is something like a pihole for search, where you have your blocklist, cache of things you’ve searched already (your own mini search engine?), and then a fallback engine (DDG, bing, Google, whatever) for things it doesn’t already know.

    I dunno. Search and AI botshit is everywhere, and it’s gonna keep getting worse. Self-hosting tools seems to be the only way to take control back.
