She refuses to use pipepipe. IDK why.

I like gogs. Automated backups and then deployment seemed super easy with gogs but not so with gitea.

You do you regarding hosting for friends. I wouldn’t do it. I self host as much stuff as I can and I’m happy to bear the responsibility for my own stuff, but taking responsibility for someone elses stuff and access to that stuff is a whole other level.

One thing I’ve learned over the years, is that making something work today is only a small part of the job. Ensuring that it works every day for the next 5 years is the real challenge.

My SO watches free tier youtube.

Edit: please stop with the alternative youtube client suggestions. I’ve tried. She likes the YT app and the ads. This hill is not worth dying on.

Awesome.

You not only solved your problem but learned a heap along the way.

I love searxng too btw. It’s the best way to search for the time being.

I’ve never used portainer sorry.

If you see the published port for a very short time then something might be crashing when it tries to start.

docker logs searxng from cli might be revealing

edit: I do have a searxng container and my compose.yml is very similar to yours. I guess we both copied the example. The only difference I can see is that you still have the env variables for UWSGI_WORKERS and UWSGI_THREADS. I just set both of those to 4 instead of using the SEARXNG_ env vars
