Add searx for various search engines? #13

Closed NintendoManiac64 closed 1 year ago

NintendoManiac64 commented 1 year ago

For example, the following userscript by someone else redirects bing to searx:

So what about integrating something like that, but for not just Bing but also DuckDuckGo, Google, Yahoo, Yandex, etc?

We can't choose to use the FOSS front-end for a particular site without a redirection tool but I think search engines are an exception because you can set a default search engine and use it without dealing with another search engine, considering that people rarely share a search engine URL with each other.

I'll keep this issue open and add the Searx redirection if it's not too complex to implement.

NintendoManiac64 commented 1 year ago

I mean, you already have support for farside, and searx / searxng is indeed something that farside includes.

dybdeskarphet commented 1 year ago

Yes indeed, what I meant by implementing was the differences between search parameters and other subpages, sorry for the confusion.

I only added Google redirection (973b1dec12e28ae17d51a9b89af1129ed7a16aa0) for now because "path" and "search" parameters are frustratingly different from each other. I'm adding Bing, DuckDuckGo, Yandex and Yahoo to the project to-do.
