Eine weitere Update-Runde für #kontra:

1. Nachdem @woxx@www.woxx.lu nun ein Update ihrer Seite vollzogen haben und die unterschiedlichen Kategorien nun besser ersichtlich sind, wurde die in Kontra eingepflegten Feeds auf eben diese beschränkt um Dopplungen zu vermeiden.

2. Das #SurplusMagazin hat seit einiger Zeit ebenfalls einzelne #RSS Feeds für unterschiedliche Themengruppen. Der in Kontra hinterlegte Gesamtfeed wurde also durch die Themen-Feeds ersetzt.

3. Außerdem neu sind Feeds des @volksverpetzer@digitalcourage.social und des österreichischen #Falter

Bereits seit mehreren Wochen gibt es übrigens auch ein Preview für ausgewählte Feeds, sodass man vorab schon einmal sehen kann, wie ein Gesamtfeed aussehen könnte, wenn man ausgewählte Nachrichtenquellen in seinen #NewsAggregator einlädt.

Für die nähere Zukunft sind noch Maintenance-Verbesserungen geplant, beispielsweise automatisierte Tests, ob die in Kontra hinterlegten RSS-URLs noch funktionsfähig sind. Kritik und Anregungen wie immer gerne per Mail, wie im Git-Repository beschrieben.

Version 1.3.11ist ab sofort online unter kontra.jayvii.de.

PS: Einen Träger / eine Partnerorganisation für das Projekt suche ich leider noch immer. Gerne teilen #pleaseboost.

It has been a while since I worked on #serci, but here is a new feature, I've been thinking about for a while but didn't have time to implement it until today: Extended options for search engines.

https://src.jayvii.de/pub/serci/commit/4a990c43d256913923eed1acc1c206e470b54df2.html

This is actually quite a small (but IMO useful) feature that let's serci parse additional text to the search engine, besides the search term. Or, as another way to think about it, it gives the user more options to tell serĉi your intent. Options are added to the keyword with the ":" separator.

Say, you want to search explicitly on the German version of Wikipedia. You can do that now with !wp:de

Or you want to translate from German to Italian with DeepL. Just use !deepl:de/it

On yesterday's #serci Update post (https://social.jayvii.de/objects/MVKQo4c6huo), today I finished a massive overhaul of the web-frontend for this Meta² search engine.

Besides looking a lot slicker, it should be a lot easier to understand for new users now. The list of search engines can now be searched and filtered and your personal default search engine can be chosen easily with a single click! I also added descriptions for each search engine, to make the list easier to browse and understand.

Feel free to try it yourself! https://search.jayvii.de

Oh, and the re-factoring increased performance by 33%! Searching on average takes 0.12s before redirect (same as before), but loading the web-frontend takes only 0.18s instead of 0.28s now. Really happy with how it turned out. Still: any suggestions are more than welcome!

I have been adding quite a few more search engines to #serci today, including #Fireball, #SearX/#SearXng, #eTools, #TigerCH, #WolframAlpha and #DBLP today.  All new additions are already live at https://search.jayvii.de.

With 64 search engines in the default configuration, I feel like the webfrontend has to present all the options in a better way. But I am really out of ideas on what that could look like... Suggestions are very welcome! #webdev #php #foss #search
