[FR]: Add Brave Search as an out-of-the-box search engine

[LorenDB]

Description

I would like to see Brave Search (search.brave.com) added as a search engine option.

Who's implementing?

• I'm willing to implement this feature myself

The problem

See description

Possible solutions

I'll implement it if I can find where to add it. (Certainly it can't be that hard, right?...)

Additional context

No response

[dumbmoron]

sounds good to me as long as someone submits all those "install brave" nags to easylist first
(e.g.: there are some other ones on serp too)

you might wanna try kagi instead in the meantime

Just made a pull request to remove Brave download suggestion in uBlock Origin: uBlockOrigin/uAssets#30195

can we instead just let people choose their own search engines instead of forcing a predefined list?

what if I wanted to use a self hosted searxng instance for example?

Forcing people to a predefined list seems like a very strange decision

@sakgoyal you can add a site search engine and promote it to default, we are not "forcing a predefined list"

[sakgoyal]

my mistake. I did not realize that you can do that.

it was unintuitive that promoting to the default from a site search was possible since it does not mention that anywhere.
