User reviews

Like the idea. If you ALWAYS want to search Google instead, it works fine, but it renders the links in DuckDuckGo results non-functional / broken / click and nothing happens. Had to remove the extension to actually use DuckDuckGo again. Had to re-install it to leave this review. Looking forward to hearing that it has been fixed, but for now, uninstalling again after finishing the review.
