Hi,

I am using firefox with duckduckgo.

Firefox + DDG = Ctrl+L - Type "!yt apples", press enter

This is so cool! DDG is my default search engine but I only knew about !g for Google.
!hn for hacker news, !gi for google images and !wt for wiktionary.
Thanks for these. I always want to search in hn specifically. This will be so helpful.
There are a ton of these in DDG: https://duckduckgo.com/bang
yeah, that's what I love most about DDG for my default search engine, it's just like having a zillion custom keyword searches preconfigured.
It would be cool if Firefox itself had those keyword searches preconfigured. That way you wouldn't have to send all your queries through DDG.
