Add Search Engine: Infinity Search #227

Closed InfinitySearch closed 3 years ago

Would you consider adding our search engine, Infinity Search to the list of search options to choose from?

CanisLupus commented 3 years ago

Hello there!

I've been asked before to add more search engines that respect user privacy, and while I'm definitely not against that, my answer will be similar to the one I gave in issue #196.

I tend to add engines that many people will want to use, so as to avoid clutter (people who don't know an engine will probably never use it, although sure, they could try), and because users can freely add their own engines as they wish.

I appreciate the focus on privacy and non-tracking ads. It's a big reason I use Firefox myself. Maybe if I believe that your engine is more well established among users I could add it. #196 has a couple more points, though.

For anyone stumbling here, to add the Infinity Search engine this is enough: https://infinitysearch.co/results?q={searchTerms}.

Cheers! Daniel

@CanisLupus That is completely understandable. Thank you for showing how to manually add it!

@InfinitySearch You are welcome! :) I will close this issue but keep this in mind for the future.
