The developer of searx fork is on github, i wonder if we can reach out to them directly to add that by default

searxng has a map search category, it’s hidden currently with the murena spot instance, use a “bang” as in !osm !map or !photon

The criticism currently for the feature is - it will fetch map previews for all search hits (that weren’t too accurate when testing) - and then quickly be rate limited. There’s one open issue to ask to unify this…

How much effort is required to add a new map provider? gleaning from the commit that added Apple Maps its <100 lines of code but with some dependencies

Ok, great!
I did not know SearX had bangs. Is that because DDG is turned on as a search engine in Settings or is it part of SearX?
It is nice to know Open Street Maps is an option too!
Thanks.

hmm. !osm does not work.
ps. Is there a way to have visited sites be highlighted?
Thanks.

No worries! I found a Firefox addon for changing colour of visited sites.
