For years, I have been using Whoogle for my self-hosted searches. It’s been great, but recently there were some upstream changes that seem to have broken it.

I’m guessing that SearXng will soon follow (based on the assumption that they too are using the JS free results Google used to provide).

Does anyone have any self-hosted search options that still work? I hear Kagi is good for paid/ non-self hosted options, but just curious what you all are using.

    I use SearcXNG. It can use Google on the backend, but in default configuration it uses several different backends. It can also use paid backends if you set it up. Basically if it has a search api, SearXNG can hook into it with the right configuration.
