I'm also using Docusaurus for Fugu (https://docs.fugu.lol).

One thing that bothers me is that they offer a free Algolia integration for open-source projects, but they declined my application despite being open source.

So, search not working for now, need to have another look at that :-)

Edit: I just got an email from Algolia DocSearch saying that my documentation qualifies after all :-) If someone from that team read my comment and send the email, thanks! If not, it's a big coincidence, also good!

We tried to use Typesense for the search bar. We could not wrap up the PR due to bandwidth issues but it should be a great alternative for Algolia. Link: https://github.com/typesense/typesense-docsearch-scraper
Yes, that looks like a good solution! Thanks!
It doesn't support search unless you rely on (pay for) Algolia? Wow, instant pass from me.
You can add your own search plugin or use another provider like Typesense. They just offer an optional free Algolia service for open-source projects on top. You can read more here: https://docusaurus.io/docs/search
Ah phew, thanks. The site made it sound like they only supported Algolia.
