It’s not sticky though. And there’s no way to force it on every search on safari for instance

Depends on your browser, but for example, in Chrome, you can set your default search in chrome://settings/searchEngines for the omnibox search. Mine is:

https://www.google.com/search?q=%s&filter=0&num=100

You could easily add the verbatim parameter as well.

Nothing similar for safari?

Not on iOS at least (chrome app and safari).

Sadly ddg doesn’g have a clear verbatim mode either, but it’s not as bad as google search yet.

Ah - yeah, mobile search sucks, right now.

I mean, in some ways, it's great. I can get a song lyric or a football score or a movie ticket very easily.

But research? Forget it.
