Just use the Fediverse (Mastodon, Misskey, and/or Lemmy.) When potential hates peech is a concern, pick a good secure instance with preferred moderation style.
Next would also be to get off of Youtube. Use Peertube to host your videos. If you are operating an organization, might benefit the hardest when maintaining your own personal instance so your content can't be removed.
I use to say to use Searx, but we need a newer, and better alternative that is somehow federated.
?
SearXNG seems fine, it's open source under the AGPL-3.0 license.
I do like SearXng. My issue with it is that it's just using the search engines that are currently dominating for the search engine market.
I want something that is like Lemmy, where you can have all kinds of websites including websites from the traditional web we know today. But each instance would have it's own search engine crawler. Possibly with various interface support. Something that does not relieve on Google at all for search results. Something new, federated and innovative.
I'd imagine SearXNG would still work for your usecase as it's a search aggregator.
What it would currently need to fulfill your want is to hook it's search function/system with each instances' APIs
Edit:
I'm saying the above in a general sense as I haven't actually looked at their source code.
I'm wanting something where, people can put their sites on there, similarly to how people put their communities on lemmy, and then they the search engines can federate and you can browse the web based off of each individual instance's indexed websites.
Would be interesting if SearxXg can do that. Or patch it in.
So Something where sites can be indexed from the traditional web but also from within the specific instances themselves, submitted by users.
