I use Kagi's extensions to maintain Kagi as default search across many devices and browsers. It's been seamless across Firefox/Waterfox/etc instances.

IIRC, Kiwi and Brave were fairly agreeable (I avoid Chrome, Edge). Opera was a pain because Opera is a pain about everything.

I appreciate the effort you+team have put into this.

I did have issues on Linux regarding the extension working in private windows due to the official Firefox extension being out-of-date. Using the latest Github release of their extension fixed it, and they promptly submitted the new update for it to propagate through the extension store after a ticket on their feedback forum asked about it[0].

Github releases with .xpi's to install have been removed[1] which is odd but hopefully they keep up with their Firefox extension submissions if this is the route they're going down.

As for Chrome, I only use it for automated/manual testing since that's what everyone uses.

We're definitely keeping the extensions going, just need to prioritise a few parts internally.

You can just git clone the new chrome extension and 'load unpacked' if that's of any use. It's extremely simple.

Any advice to Firefox users who want to do the same? I don't use Chrome or its derivatives.
