I have downloaded Opera first on my mobile where I ahd the option to put Qwant or Ecosia as my primary search engines. I have used Qwant for a while and now having used Ecosia found it a search engine more suitable and convenient for me. So I have used it on my phone okay, but when using the desktop version there was no option to put it as primary/default search engine, only allowing me to add it as a shortcut. Could Opera team please give desktop users access to make Ecosia and other search engines as default.
