| It takes a bit of effort to add all you would want and, for me personally, bangs can be anywhere instead of having to be at the start of a search query as is needed for custom search keywords. |

| Bangs through Kagi work cross-device, on every browser you use whether it supports custom searches or not. |

| Because I know how to use search engine bangs, and I have no idea what a “custom search” would look like. After probably 15 years of using DDG the bangs are just part of my muscle memory. Why bother changing things? |

| ▲ | BlueTemplar 4 days ago | parent [-] | | Well, my question then is why didn't you use custom search before DDG added bangs ? Today in Firefox : right click on a search field, add search engine.
Pretty sure that this evolved from that separate search field that browsers used to have in addition to the URL field ? |
