  • (not OP but same boat) Doesn’t really matter to me because google knows my servers external IP which is a non-issue: I don’t expect google to try to attack me individually but crawl data about me. There is no automatic link between my server and my personal browsing habits.

    In terms of attack vector vs ease of use , self hosting searxng is a nobrainer for me - but I do have an external server available for things like that anyway so no additional overhead needed.





  • No worries I phrased that quite weird I think.

    A NAS is only more power efficient if the additional power of a full server is not used. If for some reason the server is still needed than the NAS will be additional power consumption and not save anything.

    (for example I run some quite RAM and compute heavy things on my server which no stock NAS could handle I think).
