I love Ecosia, the search engine that plants trees.
But adding their extension to make it your default search engine slows down a bit the speed of searches.
So here is how to add it as default search engine without the extension:
- Go to the Parameters of Google Chrome
- Then under “Search”, click “manage seach engines”
- Add a new search engine at the end of the list with this string as the URL
- https://www.ecosia.org/search?q=%s
- To have something like
- Make it your default search engine
Warning: Doing this will remove the auto-suggestion that Google gives you while you’re typing a search in your address bar 😦
If you want to do a particular search with Google (or another search engine existing in the list), simply type the keyword assiociated to this search engine, then TAB, then your search.
