KE0ONU SearXNG now includes a link to WOLF FM at the top of each page. It mostly plays '80s music, but there are some songs from other decades too. WOLF FM is an internet radio station originally created by Steve Wolf which was popular in the early 2000s. It
The following engines have been added: Pixabay: Royalty-free media repository. OpenAlex: Repository of scientific papers, authors, and institutions. In addition, the following defunct and unsupported engines have been removed: Yummly Searchcode Additional notes: The Wordnik engine, which was previously a dictionary, has been converted to an answerer.
I figured out the problem with my Docker setup and fixed it in a way that should let it work on newer containers. I will resume updating the container.
Google does not currently yield any results on SearXNG. This is an upstream issue that I can't do anything about on my end. You can read more about the issue here: https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/5286 Until it is resolved, I recommend enabling more engines. Startpage
An update to the SearXNG Docker container has caused the container to consistently crash when starting it with Docker Compose. I will keep this instance on an older version of the container until this is fixed. Update 10-13-25 4:39 PM: I was able to run the Docker container without
Search queries were taking an average of three times as long to perform on the Springfield server, so I reverted the migration and went back to the setup on the Tampa server. I will optimize the Docker setup on that end soon. I'm not sure why that is.

To reduce the load on the Tampa server, I am migrating the SearXNG Docker container to the Springfield server.
The upstream change was that the codebase was migrated to TypeScript, which broke the custom base.html I'd been using. I have migrated it to TypeScript, so everything should work now.
Something changed upstream that broke the frontend of my instance. I'm working on fixing it.

KE0ONU SearXNG now uses HTTPS Strict Transport Security (HSTS). This ensures that your browser can only interact with the server using HTTPS connections, preventing man-in-the-middle and protocol downgrade attacks.
The Hostnames plugin now replaces the unsupported minecraft.fandom.com wiki with minecraft.wiki.
Splash texts, or just "splashes" for short, are little messages that will show up under the search bar of the homepage. A new one will appear every now and then. Splash texts will be suspended out of respect for tragic events.
After an update to SearXNG changed the way built-in plugins work, plugins were disabled for a while due to me not re-configuring them. I finally got around to it, and now built-in plugins work again. In case you didn't know, SearXNG has a number of built-in plugins: Calculator
