A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

When a service is running on 127.0.0.1 it usually wants a web server software as proxy. https://searx.github.io/searx/admin/installation-nginx.html

Caddyserver is nice and easy as well.

127.0.0.1 is actually the most local IP you can connect to, as it will always connect to the device you are on. ;) Can't get any more local than that.

Sorry, not helping, I know.

You should be able to use either without any changes. If you have a problem connecting from another system then it's likely a firewall issue.

My local ip doesnt connect. I changed to it in the config

Is your local IP a private, or public IP?

Does it start with 192, for example?

How are you determining your local IP?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Private like 10.0.0.*

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

What device are you trying to access it on? The same device?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

No, my tablet

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

Can you ping the tablet from the device running searx, or the device running searx from your tablet? Termux is a good app to test.

I can access other local sites. Im using tailscale

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

Can you ping the two devices private IP's from each other though? That narrows down where the issue is.

Yes

Acronyms, initialisms, abbreviations, contractions, and other phrases which expand to something larger, that I've seen in this thread:

Fewer Letters More Letters
HTTP Hypertext Transfer Protocol, the Web
IP Internet Protocol
nginx Popular HTTP server
