Allow using .idk (not .idk/ ) #5

It might have to do with the fact that .idk (where is the tld name coming from, hehe) isn't a official registered domain. So without the last slash it will actually invoke a search engine search. Adding slash explicitly tries to route you to the website.

but it's really annoying. is there any way to hook this event?

aaronjanse commented 4 years ago

One possible solution would be creating an omnibox keyword where the user types idk followed by a space or tab, then the query. To see this behavior on default Google Chrome, try typing bing.com hacker news.

Thoughts?

What about simply check if url matchs https://google.com/search?q=foo.idk (etc)?
