A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I was used to the bangs in DuckDuckGo too, but stopped using them. In example I have duckduckgo search engine disabled here, but can still do a ddg only search with
!ddg hello. But don't get your hopes too high, because I think it only supports the few bangs and nothing else. It does not support ddg bangs. I registered a DuckDuckGo bang!retroto point to RetroPie forum, but it does not work in Searx.Edit: It would have been a true banger if we could combine them in Searx like this:
!ddg!retroThat combination works in Brave to search the forum (prefixing !ddg or !d) I’m surprised it doesn’t in Searx.
I've just tested this in Brave and it works. And it does not require the combination,
!retroon its own is enough. Nice!
