4get (also pronounced fagget) is a free and open-source search engine proxy that doesn't suck. Licensed under the GNU Affero General Public License version 3, it aims to provide anonymized access to mainstream search engines. 4get blocks third party cookies, JavaScript cancer and provides a clean interface to navigate the web.
Users of the software can use the official site hosted in Canada, use an instance hosted by a third party or self-host from their computer. Third party hosted instances are available all around the soysphere, and are often available through the Tor network. The official site coincidentally provides a tor address to connect.
Inception[edit | edit source]
The website has been programmed in the PHP programming language by lolcat, a /g/ tranny who grew unsatisfied of SearxNG due to them being too incompetent to fix their shit. The website has been available since the 1st of July 2023 (thats Canada day), initially only supporting Brave and DuckDuckGo.
Site features[edit | edit source]
4get provides access to like, 18 search engines or something. Unlike other inferior alternatives, 4get only allows you to use a single scraper at a time. Thoughever this allows (You) to use the target site's search filters. You can go to the settings page to set a preferred search engine, modify basic content filtering rules and enable additional features.
A public API is available, although the official instance requires solving a CAPTCHA (referred as an IQ test on the site premises) first. The software supports web, image, video, news and music search options.
Cyber nukes[edit | edit source]
The 4get.ca site has been the victim of multiple DDoS attacks. On the 18th of February 2024, a SYN flood attack has hit the server, rendering it unusable for a 3 day period. The /g/ tranny had to move hosting providers because Contabo services were too braindead retarded to block the attacks.
To this day, the website remains under constant attacks from bots doing HTTP requests. Niggers on GSA forums are talking about how they can bot 4get. You can view the request count in real time on the instances page.
