what are the best settings to change for searXNG Tweaking the default engines can allow you to achieve a good balance between speed and results. Also mixing engines locale or having some pre-set locale specific engines like a version of Google fixed in en-US can improve accuracy. | 23:08:55 |
| NLA | Depends on what you want to achieve with SearxNG | 23:09:27 |
| NLA | If SearxNG is exposed to the net I would enable the Limiter | 23:10:22 |

|  Anne Kootstra changed their profile picture. | 13:55:08 |
| Xan changed their display name from Alexandre to Xan. | 11:58:48 |
 Szwendacz | is there a way to use GET queries instead of POST? | 12:41:30 |
| Szwendacz | POSTs are kinda behaving bad when my domain with searxng is assigned to specific firefox container | 12:42:07 |
 elvith | It's under settings -> privacy. You may need to re-add searxng to your browser if you have it defined as a search engine there | 12:43:34 |
| Szwendacz | it works, maybe I will find some workaround later to make post work properly with ff containers | 12:50:32 |

| dwmxr | Hello, im kinda new to this search engine. I thought it was a cool idea, but now im experiencing some issues. First of all, it seems that I can't reach some websites through the engine, like youtube and reddit: if I search for reddit, it shows me ONLY old.reddit.com pages. I set google as the only search engine so that's weird. If I search for youtube the results dont match at all my querie. Is there some setting ive probably missed out? | 13:08:31 |
| Szwendacz | I have multiple search engines set up, but in the bottom annotations google is present: | 13:10:17 |

| Szwendacz | Do you selfhost, or use some public one? That could be the difference | 13:14:08 |
| dwmxr | no Im not self-hosting | 13:16:05 |

About Google showing less results, that’s a known issue. https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/2438 | 13:18:24 |

I had a similar issue with Google when setting SearXNG the first time. If it solves when you change the locale to: "all", then, my suggestion is to add to the engine you have enabled by default, their US version also enabled by default (in the settings copy them, add a US suffix [eg. Google US], and set their locale copy to en-US). As when you search, on Google for example, the results you get are mainly from your locale and from the US one, that should solve it. Try doing this | 13:19:04 |

| dwmxr | changing to a different engine apparently solved my issue. Still I don't know why duckduckgo appears as the default search engine. Im currently using ungoogled-chromium. | 13:37:16 |
