To add it to Firefox search, open about:config and add a boolean value
browser.urlbar.update2.engineAliasRefreshset totrue. This will allow you to manually add search engines. Then open the search settings and click add. Set the URL tohttps://www.google.com/search?udm=14&q=%s, give it a name and click "Add Engine".I still like the idea of not using google search as my defacto standard, however once a month I may do an actual google search and this is a nice backup.
Thank you for your work
Tried this and it returns as site not found
Thank you! I've been looking for a way to to do that (for a different use case). Works like a charm!
