Amazon US instead of DE with the "z" search engine

Hello!

I was using this for many years without any issue but since a couple of days, when I enter a custom amazon search in my address bar such as "z blabla", it will now try to search for "blabla" on Amazon US instead of DE and I have no clue why.
Anyone have an idea? My region is set to GER, euro, etc. Like it should be.

Thanks for your help,
Jack

@jackmayolbk Isn't it common by big company policy, redirecting to its disposal ?

@jackmayolbk If you use the built-in Google search, does it redirect to google.de?

Alternatively, did you clear cookies just before this happened?

when making a search, it uses google.com as expected. Everything seems to work fine beside this amazon issue from what I can tell. I didn't clear cookies either.

@jackmayolbk why didn't simply put the search url entry on question

@mardiyah looks I can't edit the main post, but entering "z blabla" mainly outputs me there:

https://www.amazon.com/s?k=blabla&link_code=qs&tag=opera-20

I guess before it was the same link just with *.de instead of *.com

oh well, as I didn't find any solution to my issue, I just created a new custom search for amazon.de as it really started to annoy me. Hopefully I will get used to the new letter after using "z" for ages.
