Anubis implemented for SearXNG and Status Update

Hey everyone, first of all, happy new year! I was busy with some other projects last year, which is why 4get was down for a bit sadly. I had to shut it down for a bit due to the bot abuse causing other projects hosted on the server to also be impacted.

But ive finally installed Anubis in front of SearXNG, which should hopefully prevent almost all bots from abusing this instance. This should also improve the issue of engines being blocked, and may already have ;) Ive also tried it on 4get, but due to how the backend is setup installing Anubis there is not really an option sadly.

The issue with Redlib also still persists, Reddit is constantly blocking all instances, causing them do go down regularly. This may be fixed soon tho when the issue is fixed by the amazing community.

Anyway, i wish you all the best for this year and lets see what 2026 brings!
