Summary

0004053: Wadseeker search sites

Description

The list of Wadseeker default search sites has become thin over the years, with only the Idgames archive and two websites being on it at the moment when I'm writing this. Wad Archive, which Wadseeker supported, also went down recently (0004048).

We should try to recuperate this list with new websites. Find them, decide which may be benefitial for the general player (beyond the "custom URL" feature), ask the webmasters for permissions and add finally add them to the list.

Also, we need a place to track which websites were already tried and their statuses.

Additional Information

The state of the list as of 2022-11-07, Doomseeker 1.3.3, Wadseeker 2.1.2:
