This is worth noting. Unfortunately I don't use Firefox, but I wish them well up against the big Goliath.

I was playing with Perplxity's Comet and gave it a hard time with specific searches. I'm sure this will be the same on FF.
I'll give it a go.

After spending an extended period with the browser, running parallel searches on G and Bing, Comet is proving to be a usable browser.
The big takeaway for me is the lack of clutter, and, importantly, that means i can get straight to the site url.

I think I've responded to a similar question not too long ago, but I've slept since then.

Tried Perplexity in FF. Was interesting, surfaced a thought not in the original query but would have been found with a second or third query, which is my usual web search for specific items.

Meanwhile, there were a number of nags for the paid product which pretty much turned me off, so it is ALSO turned off in config.
