I just updated (I use arch btw) and had to reboot WaterFox. The default search engine got changed to 1.org and StartPage no longer shows up as a default option even. Has this happened to anybody else?

    Don’t know.
    I’ve had a little extension to make home and new tab be an arbitrary URI of my choosing.

        Sometimes.
        Usually it’s just the “homepage” or the “Startup page”, not the “New Tab page”.

        I think Vivaldi is the only one right now, that lets you set an arbitrary New Tab page.

        If startpage is not listed as option anymore one can simply go to the site and by right clicking on the address it should be possible to add it as search engine option.

      I’m too used to just searching right from the address bar I guess.

        I also change the default search immediately with any new browser.
        I switch browsers a lot, and there are close to a dozen defaults I change right away.
