I've built (what I think is the first) open source search engine and search as a service for user-submitted websites:

https://searchmysite.net/

This instance is focused on personal and independent websites, but it is relatively easy to set up other instances to search other parts of the internet (git clone; edit .env; mkdirs for data; docker-compose build; docker-compose up -d). It also has a unique approach to adverts to try and tackle spam - it detects adverts in results pages and promotes results which don't contain them. At the time of writing, users have submitted 768 sites from which it searches 46,176 pages. Some quite fun and interesting content so far, which is hard to find elsewhere.
