In Firefox (other browsers probably as well) you can add custom keywords for searches. For example visit Wikipedia, right click the search field and pick "add keyword" from the menu. As keyword enter "!wiki" or whatever you want and from now on you can just type "!wiki whatever" in the URL bar, no need to take the detour to duckduckgo or some other search engine.

Me too! Just added:

  • !w for Wikipedia
  • !wt for Wiktionary
  • !wm for Wikimedia Commons
  • !mar for Marginalia-Search
  • !mo for Mojeek

Will probably think of a few more over the next few weeks.

@snuggledick
I've shortened it to "w" wikipedia, "g" Google, "d" duckduck, "a" amazon. Also possible with "1","2",...

Typing " w Fediverse" will directly open wikipedia with the article for "Fediverse".

Even when you have abandoned the pages above it will work with your free pages too.
