Bodhi's DuckDuckGo Browser search

Bodhi Linux has a partnership with the wonderful folks at <a class="bbc_url" title="External link" href="https://duckduckgo.com/" rel="nofollow external">DuckDuckGo</a> that helps generate some revenue to support our project. Chromium, the default browser that ships with Bodhi Linux [library term="version"] can be defaulted to use the <a href="https://duckduckgo.com/">DuckDuckGo</a> search engine and is the default in Bodhi 5.x (Epiphany). If you have chosen a different default browser you can continue to support Bodhi Linux by configuring your preferred browser to use the Bodhi Linux DuckDuckGo search. <h2>General Web Browser Instructions</h2> The Bodhi Linux / DuckDuckGo search line is <pre class="prettyprint"><span class="pln">https</span><span class="pun">:</span><span class="com">//duckduckgo.com/?q=%s&amp;t=bodhi</span></pre> Add this into your browsers Search Engine settings.
