How to prevent a new page from opening in a new tab?
Hi. I checked the settings but all the time when I click on a result in Bing it opens as a new tab and I would like it to stay as one tab. I would like to know which option should be selected in the settings.
Thank you very much.
Piotr

Perhaps worth having a look at Bing settings too? Never 'signed-into' Bing here... so unsure if you can configure settings further within?
In DuckDuckGo there is an 'Open Links in New Tab - On/Off' option under 'All Settings > General'...which can then be variously saved in cloud, as a cookie, as a bookmarklet, or most simply as a URL string.

You're right, I didn't look into Bing settings, somehow I didn't think about it. By the way, do you recommend DuckDuckGo?Blacklab wrote: ↑2023-05-16, 12:04Perhaps worth having a look at Bing settings too? Never 'signed-into' Bing here... so unsure if you can configure settings further within?

Re: How to prevent a new page from opening in a new tab?
Personally, DuckDuckGo (DDG) suits me... I've used it since it first began... so Yes, I would happily recommend it.
I particularly like being able to save my own DDG search settings as a simple URL string... which I save as my homepage on Pale Moon (and all other browsers I use). I also like the DDG option to have 'continuous/infinite scroll' for all the results pages. The search privacy aspect is also very important to me.
DDG uses a lot of Bing results AFAIAA... and other sources... but if looking for something very obscure or very recent I still check Google as the 'evil one' probably has the best crawlers in the business... so may have crawled more recently than other search engines?
