#searxng — Public Fediverse posts

Configured my #SearXNG instance https://searx.travnewmatic.com to proxy searches and images through #Tor

Asked #hermes to document how we achieved it, as theres not really an end-to-end guide on how to set this up: https://www.travnewmatic.com/2026/09/11/routing-our-searxng-instance-through-tor/

This is looking to be an awesome week for getting things done.

⁃ Moved my forum #DNS from the registrant to #Cloudflare (free) account.
⁃ Added Cloudflare turnstile extension to the forum (phpBB).
⁃ Put Cloudflare #gatekeeper protection in place.
⁃ Resolved some transparency issues in the ‘winter’ extension I’m using.
⁃ Forwarding working properly on the domain so that www and root domain access go to the forum.
⁃ Used Container Manager on the NAS to build my own #SearXNG search engine.
⁃ Nearly completed the new car spreadsheet allowing us to finalise next years prospective new car purchase. Likely now either a #Nissan #Juke or #Toyota #Yaris Cross (if new models come out as expected)

All very I.T. related I know but hey it’s what I do. My own way of relaxing. It’s good to feel more useful and accomplished. Helps keep the old brain active too 😜
