Still working and needed in 2026 !

Does it what it says, but the name of the search engine "Startpage search engine POST request" as it appears on the address bar when triggered using the @ keyword is way too long.
This can be avoided when using this extension as the default search engine, but this improvement would be great. Perhaps "Startpage - POST" would work.

Is Startpage - POST Safe?
Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Startpage - POST requires very minimum permissions.
Risk impact analysis details
- High Can change search providers, which could redirect searches to malicious sites, posing moderate risk.
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
Startpage - POST has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
