On a more serious note, how does updating apps on gentoo work? I understand that everything is built on your system, but then if the app is updated, do you need to re-compile every time?

    I’m excited about mwmbl, a search engine with a novel user-curation approach to search ranking. Currently it’s in alpha, and frankly, not good enough to be daily-driven. But you can change that! While I don’t really use the engine, I make sure to use their crawler extension and script to passively help the index.

      Excellent, I hadn’t come across this yet, many thanks!

      Just fyi, you typed the link to their main source code as github.org instead of .com :)

      ETA: Been reading up today, and I’m fully onboard. Glad it uses opensearch, mega easy to just replace SearXNG, and the approach to the curation with the crawler extension is neato.
