Christine Lemmer-WebberSet up https://noai.duckduckgo.com/ as my default search engine

I did a while ago, it's so much better this way!
(For people who don't know, the full string to set is "https://noai.duckduckgo.com/?q=%s")
Erwan 🚄@silvermoon82 @cwebber This string does not work for me when there is a / in the searched string....
@silvermoon82 @cwebber I suspect the / is not encoded by firefox inside the %s. But I rarely look for somethig with a /
How to switch away from Google as your default search engine right now!
Right click in the search box you want to add in Firefox, pick "Add search engine". So do that for the search box on https://noai.duckduckgo.com/
You can then select this search box as your default search inside of settings.
You're welcome! You can add all sorts of "search engines" this way!
@R1Rail @silvermoon82 This is great if you search a particular wiki pretty often, etc

I've heard lots of people use Wikipedia as their primary search engine for example. I've thought about trying it out, but it probably wouldn't work for the way I search. Interesting workflow though imo

Librewolf (Firefox) has that as well! I use it quite a bit when looking for the package versions on distros my friends use, like @fedora [pkg] or @ubuntu [pkg]. DDG also has that built in but I use Ecosia on some computers so I also appreciate having it in browser :)
by looking at both strings and trimming the one from the right clicks I settled for
"https://noai.duckduckgo.com/?ia=web&q=%s" which allows me to look for "A/B testing".
Lou.@cwebber @R1Rail @silvermoon82 I wish firefox would sync search settings. I sync all my device have different default search engine. Also, Fx let you define extra "search engine" and I have some for the python doc, imdb, two final fantasy 14 wiki. But most of these are only on some of my devices as they aren't sync :(

You can cheat by making the search engine a bookmark instead (this you have to do manually tho!)
You create a bookmark with the URL in the exact same format, then set the shortcut to the keyword you want for it. That syncs fine between pcs, i dont recall how firefox android does.

I did not realize this setting was there. I have another question: why is the URL from using the noai front page search different from the URL from other ways to use noai ddg? (search bar from browser and from search results)
