So been moving around a lot with browsers, waterfox, librewolf and very recently degoogle chromium, figured id look at Firefox and holy theres less than half the option in setting then there were afew years back but I gotta say the biggest sin is that adding custom search engine is obfuscated, and the chooses of engines are google, bing, duckduckgo and fucking Amazon! Wtf is that about? But anyway all these search engines are pretty awful including duckduckgo but beyond that the browser scene is a joke, mullvad are about the only company I feel compatible with using now
Edit: instead of saying how easy it is to add custom search engines, I’d like to know why the “add search engine” feature in settings is gone?
Incidentally unless somebody removed it in the last ten years you should be able to add your Friendica site as a search engine. I recently upgraded this in streams with an updated permissions specification as a direct response to what is in my opinion a horrible search specification proposed for the fediverse by a project that I will refrain from calling out publicly.
