Is there any plans to offer search with other search providers?

Are there any plans to offer search with other search providers, other than Bing? At least for the Linux and Mac editions?

    You can use this configuration for new tab page

     

     

    but Bing will be used in the sidebar regardless. it's because it's optimized to run in that small area.

     

    I use Bing on daily basis since the past 1.5 years, it's getting better and better. it finds me websites that Google didn't index. but I think the only problem Bing has, is that it has less indexed/crawled websites than Google, do you agree?

    Wait...you're saying that you don't have this option in Mac and Linux?

      I think he just can't find it, they hid this option so deep (under Privacy), unlike other browsers, that the first time I searched for it for about ten minutes, until I figured out using the search for settings

        that's why there is a search bar in the settings.

        type "search" and you see that option. nobody needs to remember anything, the search bar is for that.

        the same applies to Windows settings, or control panel etc.
