Is it possible to get Lemmy's search result in JSON format? E.g., to include the search in search engines like searx. That would be really awesome.

hmm 🤔 … Normally, the following in the settings.yml should do the trick:

  - name : lemmy
    engine : json_engine
    search_url : https://lemmy.ml/api/v3/search?q={query}&page={pageno}
    results_query : posts
    url_query : post/ap_id
    title_query : post/name
    content_query : post/body
    categories : social media
    shortcut : le
    paging : True
    disabled : False

But my searx instance doesn't even seem to fetch the JSON.
