@Zalex108 I suggest splitting the "Search / Go To" option located in Settings > Address bar > Dropdown Menu Priority into two separate items.
It's supposed to look like this:

Search / Go To Go To Search Direct Match etc.

Go To and Search will be disabled by default but the users can turn them on if they wish.
As a result, to search for example.com, you would need to press the up or down arrow.

You got me

There is a paste and go in firefox and inbuilt with chromium, so you can copy and then paste and go witch is okay but a single click search in the context menu would be a one click solution to opening a new search tab and I know most browsers used to have the feature as I still go to do it today and know the annoyance any time I have to copy and then paste and go

Happened like 6 times in a few hours yesterday going down a frustrating rabbit hole of trying to figure out the best solution to get windows audio through LAN connected network audio speakers.
Im going to have to dive into that one again 😰

Its would just save time and make make the workflow streamlined with a context menu thats already pretty small and a feature thats available within the webpage so might not be too difficult to implement?

Thanks for the reply 🙂

@3dvs Couldn't agree more 👍

@Pesala that's how I've been doing it but Google seems to jump around sometimes it doesn't stay where I put it which of course it in the Gs then when I look at the list itsv completely different order from when I left settings

@AlessandroT btw you are free to add brave search on your own... 😉

And perhaps add the suggestions too https://search.brave.com/api/suggest?q=%s

@dalinar,

FWIW, I tend to use search engine nicknames in address / lcoation field to select which one to use

Time will tell, feels like this limitation affects a minute population.

I think this is one of the most basic and "must have" features.

You seem to live very self-centered.

Imagine that the 3 million users of Vivaldi think that their request is a "must have" feature.

Said:

I'm just politely stating my request.

No one is denying that attribute, but it does not cause your claim to be settled immediately.
