Eight months later and we still don't have Qwant for the desktop version (and/or Opera Mobile) . It's available for Opera Touch and I love it. Come on, guys, can you at least explain what's taking so long?

lapsang last edited byIn the beginning of this topic, zalex108 presented a “workaround”.
I tried and tried, but it doesn’t work for me.
Should it still be working? (I might be doing something wrong).

Also, the flag has been disabled, at least on Dev doesn't appear anymore."You cannot know the meaning of your life until you are connected to the power that created you". · Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi

Not allowing your users to set ANY search engine they want is a problem. Opera needs to become more open to suggestions and they really should communicate more with us. Tell us why you can't do something immediately. Tell us your ideas. Respond to our ideas.
I was here when they released Opera Mini for BlackBerry. Good times, so many discussions, ideas, the dev team was communicating all the time. These forums are now basically dead and I find that really sad. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Opera, but communication is something they really need to work on.

To be honest:
The main and only reason I went back from Opera to Firefox, is this search engine issue.
This, and the fact that this forum does not send notifications per e-mail, explains why I see the replies only now.
Thank you very much for your explanation, zalex108.
We’ll have to wait for maybe a change in the future.

what about search encrypt?
It's better because it's encrypted and doesn't pass any law.

I do not think that adding more and more pre-defined default implants is a good idea. Ideally, the user would have the choice to remove or disable (hide) selected ones and add their own.

I don't think I'm gona keep Opera if they don't allow users to use the default search engine they want... It's the most annoying "Bug" on this browser !

Created an account to bump this. Dont really understand why Opera would not allow this? I mean it's not hard to do? I've been using this browser for last few years and really like it, but this is a bit of a deal breaker. Just re-installed Firefox.

I switched to Edge Dev a few weeks ago and I'm not planning to come back to Opera. The only thing I kinda miss is Opera's speed dial, but whatever.

I just tried Qwant Maps. It is very slow to update when one moves the map. -

I'm adding myself on the list of other people who want to see this feature in Opera. I think it would be OK for a European based company to support another EU company, especially the one that respects privacy.

@jeanpetric Opera is owned by the Chinese now! I am currently trying out Vivaldi, made by previous Opera employees. Its pretty good.
