What I don't like about SearXNG (aside of no favicons/icons I think) is that it doesn't show the content of what I am looking for in the browser desktop tabs, if I search for "Linux" in the tab it is only shown "SearXNG" instead of what I am searching for... That definitely kills my browsing habits... I hope I am being clear (can't post a screenshot right now), also unsure if it was the same with mobile browsers.

It supports favicons now, it has to be enabled by the instance.

Thanks for the heads up, always a good thing being proved wrong when asking for features :p

I can set up a favicon resolver on my instance. I'll do it today.

Thank you, I didn't even know it was possible.

I am gonna try it later, happy spying /j

There we go, I have the favicons set up. Sorry for the intermittent downtime, I was doing some configuration.

You can control that with a setting. In Settings - Privacy, turn on “Query in the page's title.”

My instance has a magnifying glass as the favicon.

Thank you, totally missed this then 😄

That is configurable. Settings > Privacy > Query in the page's title

Oh, so it was a privacy feature then? Neat!
