Hister: A free & self-hosted personal search engine

Automatic Page Indexing

The extension automatically captures page content every time you visit a URL. It extracts the page title, full text, HTML , and favicon, then sends them to your Hister server via its API.

Hister does not encrypt the history data it stores. This is only a problem if you don’t trust the Hister server your clients are communicating with.

Quite a thing to consider that this will also include all your personal data. So if you host this somewhere centrally all your data will be there. I suppose that is the point but it is creating quite a target.

Personally I wouldn’t use it, if it is not end to end encrypted so that only my own clients could decrypt the data living on the central server.
