It's not even a question (outside of clickbait bs by news agencies)

lemmy.world is probably overloaded.

On my instance, everything from them floods through all at once, filling my first couple of pages with hours or even days worth of stuff, then I'll get nothing from them for a while again.

I mean, maybe it's because I'm not overly paranoid or live in the US, but this doesn't seem like a big deal at all.

As for the "drama" of them telling someone they can unfollow, it's true. It's again, not a big deal.

This screams people trying to make a mountain out of a molehill.

I ended up just hosting my own Searxng instance. Seems a lot easier to control and not be dependent on how someone else has theirs set up.

What's wrong with Ubuntu?

My favorite part is when it finally becomes somewhat less overloaded, and my instance gets flooded with a bunch of posts from there filling the entirety of my front page, and the second page...

Thank you I'll look into it.

I tried searching for a local place, and all I got for the first two pages are instagram and facebook pages. It wasn't until the third page I got past all that crap to get to the actual website for the location. I even tried search "PlaceName City Website" and still got all that crap instead.

Is there any way to block it on my personal searxng instance? Sorry if it's obvious.

I'm guessing the latter.

Or a farmer ~~playing with~~ using explosives to remove a trunk.

That's great news! Hopefully it releases soonish.

Not only annoyingly slow, but I tend to get a massive influx of posts from one community all at once. It fills my entire page with that single community. It's been my biggest annoyance so far.

That's awesome, now I just have to figure out how to convince my wife to let me do it.
