    Searxng uses bangs but you have to double them up (i.e. !!aur btop or !!ddg search).

    I love how your first example was AUR.

    I use arch BTW.

      SearXNG does, I think...any others? Looking around for other engines that aren't US-based, though I guess DDG is still considered acceptable for LibreWolf's default engine. Bangs are incredibly useful!

      Brave Search has !bangs and an independant search index. Kagi relies heavily on it.

            You can manually setup any site to be your default search in Firefox.

              Yeah, I figured it out after I posted. I'll give this a try for a while

                I just add the search to firefox and you can get the same functionality without needing to use another site to get to the one you want to search on.

                  Subscription search seems at odds with privacy.

                  Unlike free search where there's definitely no incentive to sell your data to keep the lights on, right?

                    Kagi (paid) advertises a huge list of bangs with the option to customise them yourself.

                    For those who maybe breeze past it in the article linked, here's an unofficial tool for searching all of the zillions of Kagi bangs: https://kbe.smaertness.net/

                    They have all the usual, !g for Google, !gi Google Images, !b Bing, !ddg, !brave, etc, plus like a billion niche ones.

                      I also use them, and have liked the results.

                      Probably because they pull from Google
