@river @IntrepidVector Different question, but do you also happen to know how I could put back the search engine selection at the bottom of the URL/search bar? Before I switched to Librewolf, the Firefox 128 ESR had that (it had first the URL suggestions from your browsing history, and below that the option to search with different search engines), and the Librewolf that's based on the latest Firefox only has a drop-down menu that's a lot less intuitive to keyboard-navigate to... (Need to Shift+Tab to it and then press the down arrow before the menu appears, as opposed to just pressing the down arrow a few times...)

This is what stopping me from using a custom search engine right now, the fact that it's difficult to select a search engine for a search at all

@nash @brhfl @lexfeathers I already know what an "AI" internet looks like, we're in it right now, all the web sites keep pushing "AI" that wasn't asked for

@lexfeathers @IntrepidVector You mean lite.duckduckgo.com as default search engine? I can confirm that Librewolf does offer that, I switched to Librewolf recently over the Firefox LLM stuff and set the default engine to lite.duckduckgo.com

@IntrepidVector @lexfeathers I see... Not really a choice if you clear cookies regularly and it defaults to it turned on and not to it turned off... I avoid it by going to https://lite.duckduckgo.com, the version without JavaScripts and without LLMs, but it doesn't have picture search, so for picture search I instead have to remember to type in https://noai.duckduckgo.com, which is somewhat annoying...

@lexfeathers "Big Tech doesn't care if you want AI or not. They should.", written by the same company who added "AI" overview to their search without asking us...

I wonder what they'll do with the results, whether it'll make them reconsider it or not
