    I’m not upvoting out of support for this move but to spread awareness

      Whereas I’m upvoting because I support adding options. If you don’t like it, don’t use it.

        Everyone already had the choice to use this before. You can visit any site with a search box, and add that site as a search engine to Firefox.

        This is forcing it down people’s throats.

        I really don’t know enough about Perplexity AI to have an opinion one way or another, which is why I’m upvoting for awareness. I can’t say whether it’s a good or bad thing, although I’m not optimistic given the general trend of shoehorning “AI” in whether it makes sense or not, but I’m sure there are actually useful applications for the product and a better search engine could be one. I want actual search results, though, not a generated slop answer.
