So far the most useful thing I have found has been the bangs from duckduckgo.
With it I can avoid an additional search and go directly search the place I want to look whether that is python docs, rust docs, Wikipedia, reddit or Amazon. Heck I can forward myself directly to google too.
All of this with just a !w, !a, !python3, !rust, !g added to my query.
I understand why google doesn't support this, largely because they want people to stay on the google page and be subject to ads.
I just question the utility of showing advertisements for at least programming related queries where I think the direct to websites seems a lot more useful.

- treszkai 5y agoYou can drop the "3" from !python3, it has the same result.
