Websurfx is an open-source meta search engine written in Rust that aggregates results from multiple search engines while respecting user privacy. It offers a modern, fast, self-hostable alternative to SearXNG with theming and multi-language support.
Use cases
- self-host a privacy-respecting meta search engine
- find a modern alternative to searx
- aggregate search results from multiple engines without tracking
- run a fast search engine on my own server
- host a private search instance for my family or team
- customize the look of my search engine with themes
When to choose
- you want a lightweight, fast Rust-based meta search engine you can self-host
- privacy from search engine tracking is a priority
- you want a modern UI with theming and multi-language support
When to avoid
- you need a full web crawler/indexer rather than aggregated results
- you need a managed hosted search service
- you require plugin ecosystems or maturity of SearXNG
