Doesn’t traffic take longer to travel if you’re farther from the PC? We waste power for the PC because it’s not a laptop that can have a battery.
I’ve already fully set up searxng in proot, but I’m slowly porting it to the main termux app using sed and other workarounds. There’s something called Nix on Droid;
