Hello! Today I learned about the existence of LibreY, and the project seems very interesting. I was wondering, how does it compare with SearXNG? which one is easier to self host, and which one is lighter on resource usage? Which one gets rate-limited less? I'm particolary interested in opinions of people who used both

Thanks in advance!

And what if the server has a static IP address?

Doesn't matter. They can still serve you ads.

How is this possible? I mean, how can they connect the searches from the ip of the server with your laptop's ip?

If the public IP is same, they will only see that.

They only see your public IP address (ie your router), so all devices on the private side will appear to be the same source.

So, if your laptop and your server (and anyone else at the same location) are connected to the internet via the same router, then, you're the same source.
