Hello! Today I learned about the existence of LibreY, and the project seems very interesting. I was wondering, how does it compare with SearXNG? which one is easier to self host, and which one is lighter on resource usage? Which one gets rate-limited less? I’m particolary interested in opinions of people who used both
Never assume anyone ever knows what you’re talking about. It may seem like you’re talking to people here who know more than you, but everyone has a different bucket of knowledge.
Self-hosting, by it’s nature of using a lot of OSS, means there’s a LOT of discovery here.
You’re effectively addressing the entire world here - you never know who is here for the first time.
This is college level writing 101 stuff - the first time you mention something, you footnote a reference. Today that equivalent is a link.
I try to always link to things we’re talking about, except for really big stuff (I’m not linking to Google.com, but maybe to a specific app or feature somewhere within Google).

If you learned today about LibreY, why don’t you provide a link for others? 🙃
I am sure you are not the only one, who didn’t know about it

you’re right, thanks for posting it yourself! I’m a newbie in the selfhosting world, so I thought that LibreY was “famous”, but I was wrong!
