en Don't like how you can't set it to not control your start page, home page, and search. They need to add more customization options for this.

en After installing chrome extension my custom start up page is replaced with Duck Duck Go search page, even though the start up page in settings is still my custom page. I have my own start up page so this makes using this extension a bit of a hassle.

ja いいと思うが、1点だけどうしても妥協できない点があり、 私的には使用できない。 WEBページでテキストを選択し、右クリックから”Googleで「〇〇」を検索”が この拡張機能を入れることで”DuckDuckGoで「〇〇」を検索”に置き換えられてしまう。 置き換わってしまうと右クリックからはDuckDuckGoでしか検索ができなくなる。 これは普通にコンテキストメニューに追加するだけでよかっのでは?と思う。 改善があれば今後使うかも知れないが、 たったこれだけのことで現時点では使わない拡張機能になってしまう。
