FWIW, I gave YaCy a try a while back, and I agree with the article on that one. Shit tier results that make ancient AltaVista look good. Might be fine for intranet search. I like the idea of its distributed hosting, but pass on this one.
Other poster mentioned SearXNG, and while I haven’t delved into that too much, it’s probably worth a check. Pass on YaCy.
I really like Yacy’s results, personally. It seems good for the kinds of sites I care about. My biggest problem with it is that the newest version is so memory-hungry.

SearXNG is a meta search entirely reliant on other services.
