Along these lines I use ddg’s bangs for the same benefit. So many searches for Python help are filled with very shallow intros on tutorial sites of varying quality with the official docs rarely the first result.
Now I just prefix my query with !py and I’m immediately taken to the docs.
- r-w 5y agoBrave Search supports !bangs ;)
- jonathansampson 5y agoIndeed, including nearly all of DDG's !bangs :) We also add in some others, such as !so for StackOverflow, !gh for GitHub, and !mdn for the Mozilla Developer Network.
- striking 5y agoThose are also in DDG.
- jonathansampson 5y agoWouldn't surprise me; DDG has an impressive list of !bangs (more than 13K, IIRC). Thanks for the clarification!
- 0x49d1 5y agoAnd is there any list of all available bangs + also do we have an ability to add new ones?
- andreasha 5y agoTip it lacks keyboard shortcuts to navigate search results (up/down, enter).
- cturtle 5y agoThat’s good to know! For clarity, I wasn’t trying to say DDG is better than Brave, rather agreeing with the parent that there are smarter tools for gathering information rather than relying solely on a search engine.
