The search engine isn't currently open sourced as we're still a small project and don't want to get wrecked by competitors at such an early stage, but you can contribute by creating packages that layer on top of the search engine - you can see a few of those here - https://presearch.io/packages. You can search any cryptocurrency through presearch.org and see a community package that one of our community members made. Here's the github link to the community package code as well!

Hey everyone! i started working with Presearch as head of marketing - we just launched our decentralized search engine so you can run a node on your computer or on a VPS like AWS through docker and process searches that are queried through Presearch. We’re like duck duck go but less corporate/traditional, more privacy focused and decentralized. It takes 5 min to get set up and you can join through the beta through the link above (: wanna learn more? head to www.presearch.io. Node rewards are going live at the end of the month so you will actually earn for running a node (it’s basically free to set up) email me alex@presearch.io if u have any q’s or want to chat (:

Also, you can try searching on our decentralized search engine through https://presearch.org

shoot me a message alex@presearch.io with any feedback, ideas etc. (:

Welcome to Presearch, i thought that you would all find this super interesting given the current landscape of censorship & centralized powers that be. We're a decentralized search engine powered by the community. We just launched our node-powered search engine this week, meaning you can run an instance on your computer or through a cloud provider like AWS and process searches that users query from our platform. If you want to be a beta node operator, create an account on Presearch, join our telegram group (https://t.me/PresearchNodes) & fill out our typeform (https://presearchcommunity.typeform.com/to/UkDumktm). Once you're accepted, head to https://nodes.presearch.org. We're excited to see you using a platform!

Why do users need your permission to run a node?

I'd be interested in this as well. I assume/hope this is a temporary thing, same as the reason someone mentioned why you haven't open sourced the project?

If they ban it will be the beginning of the end for reddit. As i think is the case for Discord.

Nah

That's why the world needs more decentralized technologies. Pro DeFi & other decentralized tech.
