  • As others said, Searxng is a search proxy. Any given instance can be configured to return results from vary many sources. Why would the results vary with repeated identical search? Not sure, but perhaps a bit of randomness is in the algorithm of which sites yo return results from, or which order to display them in. Also possible: latency may vary and so for each search a different result set is retrieved first.












  • Thanks for the explanations, @Scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech.

    I introduced myself to tools/functions in Open-WebUI: there is a community library of tools/functions and you can essentially copy/paste them into Open-WebUI and then they’re available there. If I understand correctly, tools add functionality to models and functions add functionality to Open-WebUI.

    I’m still confused, though: if I add a web search tool to Open-WebUI (some do exist), I would guess that it could only ever add functionality to the model if I access the model through Open-WebUI - but HA is accessing the model directly through Ollama.
