I keep feeling frustrated as valuable knowledge for my different hobbies over the last years became siloed away in corporate social media. I believe wikis could be a way out, but can we have decentralized, federated wiki software that can kind of talk among each other?
Is there an explanation for stupid of how SearXNG works? I tried it for a while after getting too frustrated with the Google enshittification, but couldn’t get results really.
It’s considered a meta search engine. Basically it queries a bunch of different search engines at once and then aggregates the results.
Searxng is a must have :) !selfhosted@lemmy.world if you have any question on how to self host your instance.
The other solution is to use public searxng instances !
Self hosting at home is out of the question. I use an antenna to suck enough internet out of the air for daily needs in my remote valley. So I have started a small wiki farm on my webspace (is that indeed the same a tech person calls a VPN?)
