I don’t like to be the “let me google that for you” guy, but this information is searchible in under 30 seconds. There is no point in asking it as a question on a forum
To clarify - checking the official GitHub repository for the status of a project is faster and much more reliable than asking strangers on an internet forum.
@clb92@Albinjose7345@privacyguides if we want more people to start their privacy journey and be capable of navigating these waters that change before people can get a chance to get their sealegs, we have to show up with grace & patience. we’re gonna have to show people how to look for accurate, vetted info in a sea of misinfo. it helps no one to approach the situ the way you and @moreeni did
(and i’m not sure why PG is encouraging it by boosting it)
I’m pretty sure that’s just how other ActivityPub platforms see posts in Lemmy/kbin communities. There’s no boosting here and @privacyguides isn’t an user
Asking the question here allows a conversation to happen, informs others that SearXNG is a thing and provides additional context.
If everyone just looked everything up on their own, there wouldn’t be much of a forum here for you to go and wag your finger at people asking questions.
If you want more reasons about why allowing people to ask questions is beneficial for the health of a community, you can go google it.
Asking the question does provide some value, because at least for me this is the first I’ve heard of the discontinuation of maintenance, and I use SearX.
Yes, it is no longer maintained.

I need to confirm it by anybody as most of the things in internet are unstrustable for me.
I didn’t mean to waste your time by my post. Sorry.

Why would you trust random people instead of the official Searx repository then? That makes no sense.

…and all of that is provided in the searx repo, which I linked and, which, as I have said, is easily searchable.
Note that I have never said that asking questions should not be allowed, you made that up.

Apparently SearxNG is still developed
