Thanks for pointing out bangs, it's definitely a good product too. I do think Jumprope has a couple legs up: You can create your own shortcuts at https://jumpr

Thanks for pointing out bangs, it's definitely a good product too. I do think Jumprope has a couple legs up: You can create your own shortcuts at https://jumprope.ai https://jumprope.ai without needing to submit them to ddg for approval You can also do alias commands - for example I set it up so "prs" opens me github pull requests page for example and "zm" opens the company zoom link but yes looks like bangs has some cool regex manipulation but hopefully Jumprope is easier to get started with.

    But I can't type in the browser bar than right? hmm edit: uh oh, i see: "With the use of bangin-server-node it is possible to use bangin as the search engine in your web browser. " I'm about 90% there already with other hacks, just stuck to having + signs instead of spaces :) My ridiculous way: - https://github.com/einaregilsson/Redirector https://github.com/einaregilsson/Redirector - some local-host open-search plugin meant for self hosted searx. Adds a bunch of junk parameters but searches on localhost:8888/q=SEARCHTEAM%morecrap - set it to my default search - some redicoulous regex trying to catch the search term after the bang !z ^(?:http:\/\/localhost:8888\/\?q=%21z\+)(.*)&language=en&time_range=&safesearch=0&categories=general - same without the bang for fallback redirecting to duckduckgo

Isn't that what bookmarks are for ? I have a bookmark called "my issues" that opens jira with a custom filter where I appear, and another called "my merge requests" that opens gitlab with my open MRs. I can rename those bookmarks to be shorter, maybe "i" and "prs" if I want. My browser is configured to not show any search suggestions, so I literally type "merge<TAB><Enter>" and I'm on the list of merge requests. Jumprope would give me the added benefit of sharing those with other people, but I like building my own configuration -- what makes sense for someone may be counter-intuitive for me, and vice versa.
