whoogle-search

benbusby/whoogle-search · ★ 11.6K

Whoogle was a self-hosted metasearch engine that fetched Google search results and stripped out ads, JavaScript, AMP links, cookies, and IP tracking. As of July 2026 it is officially dead: Google closed off the last way to fetch results without JavaScript, so the app no longer returns any search results.
