Remarkable poll on search engine preference has closed. A plurality of the Fedi does not use Google Search? I learned of many unfamiliar alternatives in the replies. This result makes me wonder if #GoogleTrends is not adequately capturing interest in the #Fediverse because of the selection bias against using it?@tristen Ah! There are more broadly usable accessibility "pseudo-standards" developing. For example, typing a forward slash will jump to the search on most sites with prominent search inputs, including YouTube. Pressing question mark will show a reference of available shortcuts on sites like these.
It took a few years since I opened the ticket, but the Python Package Index finally implemented it.
In Safari, typing y into the address bar suggests YouTube, tab accepts it, then type search, ⏎.
@wendyg @profcarroll searX use searX - DuckDuckGo has been compromised since mid-2021 and now only provides disinformation.
