  • I have been able to install ad blockers into Chromium, but I can remember if I had to change something somewhere. The point is, that it can be done… But overall I do agree that we Chromium is not fine overall. It needs to be forked to have full community control. FF has been forked a lot and I think that is the only reason we currently have functional browsers. Apparently this is a big problem, because you don’t see other much work in this area apart from servo, which would be great if it could get enough traction to be a full blown browser soon. I will switch on day 1.





  • This looks really rad. I have been trying to build a leftist search engine using searxng and it has a lot of issue because of things getting blocked over tor due to the amount of background requests you have to be making to those sites. I have thought about building something like this to deal with that issue, but just had my hands full with other projects. Quite obviously (for those who like to come online to shit on really cool project people are building) the use case is people looking to build their own privately indexed search results without it having to get polluted by shit that comes up in other search engines. I feel like that was immediately apparent to me, because I have that use case and I immediately saw the utility here. For those who don’t get, just because it doesn’t fit the use case you have for internet related projects, doesn’t mean it’s not extremely useful to others. You literally don’t have to come on here just to shit on what other people are doing simply because, “you don’t get it.” This project looks really cool and I am going to look into replacing my searxng instance with this soon. I am super stoked that somebody has done this work. It has needed to be done for a long time. So thank you!
