  • If you’re there with Searx then it’s pretty similar to how Kagi works. Kagi sends requests to various search providers and has some of its own index then shows results based on the various sources.

    I found Searx/Searxng slow, 5-6 seconds per query (to get a response from each source), though it seems others have it working faster. Might have been some IP or rate limiting issue.

    Kagi has easy ways to raise/lower rankings and users can report AI slop pages to have them removed, but all in all Searx gives pretty good results.

    Haha don’t worry, it can be confusing! There are a lot of different mobile apps too (see https://lemmyapps.com/ and filter by your phone type) but it sounds like you’re trying to add a second account. You can only log in to your account on the instance you signed up to it with, then you search for the communities you want to follow (which can be on other instances).

    Some apps let you log in to multiple accounts at once, in which case you could sign up for a new account at fedinsfw then log in to that account in your app, then you’d have two accounts you can switch between.



  • So your account is on lemmy.today. What are you trying to do when you say you can’t add the server fedinsfw?

    You should probably be using your lemmy.today account to subscribe to specific communities on fedinsfw.

    It kind of sounds like you might be trying to log in to fedinsfw with your lemmy.today account? It doesn’t work like that, you should log in to lemmy.today and then subscribe to fedinsfw communities.

    It’s also pretty important what you’re using to access Lemmy. There are a dozen or more actively developed apps and at least 4 or 5 different website interfaces. It’s confusing but important to know exactly what steps you took (which website you went to, which app you opened, which buttons you clicked) to get to where you got stuck due to all the options.





  • I guess I just feel like if I need to know something (something is offline etc) then I need a notification, I don’t want to have to be checking a dashboard. I use Uptime Kuma for this.

    I see your point with Jellyfin, but I also have the clicks to find active streams as muscle memory and it’s not needed that often so I don’t think I’d go setting up a dashboard just for that.
