Looks neat, and similar to ddg's bang searches. I set ddg as my default search engine, and use it similarly, `!tw Joe Biden` in my Firefox search bar to search for tweets about Joe Biden and the like.

oh thanks for the heads up, yes looks similar. But Jumprope hopefully has a couple more perks:

You can create your own shortcuts at https://jumprope.ai without needing to submit them to ddg

You can also do alias commands - for example I set it up so "prs" opens me github pull requests page for example and "zm" opens the company zoom link

but yes thanks for the heads up!

how exactly do I create my own shortcuts? I can only see the landing page.

Perhaps your sign up did not work - you have to have a google chrome account with an email address and then install the extension here.

if that doesnt work please reach out to [email protected] and i will investigate

Recently switched from many, many years of DDG back to Google and I really miss bangs...otherwise, results are way better.
