Where can I find that setting? I don’t see anything like that anywhere in the UI. If it’s in the config files and not in the UI, that isn’t particularly useful to me.
It’s in the UI on the Engines tab. However, you can only see it there, you still have to use the config file to actually change it, sorry. That’s not hard at all though.
If you don’t see this option, perhaps you’re running an older version? I’m running the latest docker.
Oh, I think this is different to what I’m talking about. Seems like the weight in SearXNG impacts search engines used, where what I’m talking about is in regards to the actual results. So I could prioritize or deprioritize websites which tend to produce good or bad results, block domains, pin favourites, etc. The example I used elsewhere is like having letterboxd results rank higher than IMDB when I search for movies
Ah I see. I didn’t really understand the requirement. That would indeed be a nice one though pretty hard to configure for general search because the results can come from so many sources.
As well as that, for special-purpose things like movies it does in fact have a ranking for those by querying common sites like IMDB directly as an engine. So in that case you can use the weighting system to show preference. It doesn’t seem to support letterboxd as a source but it does some others:
That’s cool, but I’d still prefer not to be wrangling a dozen or so engines with bangs and editing config files when I could do it all through the UI in a more intuitive way. While I don’t mind initial setup, I have very little appetite for endless tweaking of config files. So while I’ll keep an eye on SearXNG and occasionally pull it onto my server, Kagi can continue being my daily driver for now.

Yeah I understand, Kagi is a good service!
