Ok, now, to make this the be-all and end-all of search engines…
Can it be self-hosted?

Looks like it from the readme…they give instructions for “setting it up locally”

I was wondering the same, but I didn’t find any information on how it builds the search index. I guess it takes quite a while until it’s usable. Also, it might be very dependent on the speed if the internet connection and also the available storage.
