      In Microsoft Edge there is a feature where the user is able to type in a search term after the link in the address bar (if the website has a search function). After hitting enter, the browser automatically searches for it on that website.
      For example youtube.com cat videos takes us to the search page of youtube with cat videos already looked up.
      It is not an essential feature, but it saves a couple of clicks and seconds. Switching to Opera GX from Edge, I miss this option.
      Would it be possible to implement it in Opera?

        On Youtube, right-click on its search field, choose "create search engine", name it what you want (or leave it at youtube.com for the name, set its keyword to youtube.com, and click "create". Then try it.

        I personally like to have the keyword be yt so that I can type yt cats in the in the address field.
