  • YaCy – your own search engine

    They seem to have a configuration option for it: https://github.com/tecoholic/yacy-it/blob/main/options.html#... but that file isn't present in the most recent tag, so it's possible it just needs a release or you'd need to build the extension from source

    I really liked this setup. The only point of friction for me was adding the links to the index via the crawler everytime. So I created a Firefox Extenstion to do it directly from the address-bar.

    If someone is interested, you can download it from here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/yacy-it/

    Limitation: It currently supports only YaCy running on localhost and unprotected. You might have to configure CORS as outlined here -> https://github.com/tecoholic/yacy-it#configuring-yacy
