4get is a metasearch engine, similar to Searx and SearXNG

You can find the source code here: https://git.lolcat.ca/lolcat/4get

When people self host searx and 4get, is it meant to be local use too, or is it only for public use? (or both?)

Like would it be stupid if I host searx but only for local use? How does it even work?

Both.

Ideally, if you're hosting a private one, it's better to share it with your friends since it helps to obfuscate the traffic.
