Brave Search supports !bangs ;)



That’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.


Indeed, 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.


Those are also in DDG.


Wouldn't surprise me; DDG has an impressive list of !bangs (more than 13K, IIRC). Thanks for the clarification!


And is there any list of all available bangs + also do we have an ability to add new ones?


Tip it lacks keyboard shortcuts to navigate search results (up/down, enter).


Arrow and PgUp/Dn keys scroll the page, as per standard Web UI. Tab key jumps from one link to the next, also as per standard Web UI. Maybe they changed that between our comments.


That works horribly on the results page, around 10 tabs to get to the first result.
