Opinion: Actively searching without Google or Bing is harder than it looks.

Was wondering what the hell was going on this morning.

While we’re on the topic of search engines, does anyone know how to install your own private Whoogle instance? I’ve been a little confused by the instructions I’ve found; do I need my own server to set this up?

If you just want to use it from your home computer / network you can run it locally, either installing it directly or in a container. You only need a server (or a way to connect to your home network) if you want to access it from elsewhere.

Thanks! Will give it a try (but may have more questions as I try to set it up).
