Why does my search go via affinity.net?
-
When I type Amazon or Aliexpress in the search bar, which is set to Google Search, it briefly goes via affinity.net.
Why is this?
I have disabled all my extensions.

Hi, it depends on the location but I guess this is Direct Match or Best Result in Settings Address Bar > Priority List.In Germany Aliexpress is a direct match:
Disable Direct Match in the list.

Thank-you, it was direct match. It also did the same in Private mode.I am disappointed that this is a default setting in Vivaldi.

It's like the default bookmarks Vivaldi come with, the only way to generate income.

I have it disabled too but it would be helpful in this case because Amazon and Aliexpress is a direct match for me.
