Reverse image Search redirects to google lens. Can't disable it.
-
Ok, so Google did a Google with chrome and replaced reverse image search with Google Lens. Which sucks if you use it to do anything that is not looking for things to buy. And this change affected vivaldi. (funny, because a couple of sites I searched actually recommended starting using vivaldi if this change bother you).
i tried disabling it in vivaldi://flags/#enable-lens-region-search, but it didn't work and Search image with google still redirects to Google Lens, rather than using google images.
Anything besides using a third party extension that I can do here to revert to the old ways?

@tony3rd You can do a manual reverse image search with a command chain ☛ https://forum.vivaldi.net/post/565137. Stop the chain after the first »search selection with engine« command and make a new search entry in settings with this search URL
https://www.google.com/searchbyimage?&image_url=%s. Then select the engine as parameter in the chain.
