Tritiy, glad you like Swurl. Swurl isn't on Github, it isn't open source. But it is mostly JS, you can just view source to take a look.

I just added a setting to disable "Open in a new tab". Disable it from the drop down menu on the right of the search input, and let me know if that works well for you now?

Cool, yes just added it today! Thank you for voting it up.
For dark mode, are you wanting it automatic based on detection, or a setting?

Ok I checked it out more. It is getting blocked due to tracking protection. So for Twitter and Instagram, the only way to integrate it well and easily is with embeds/widgets. It is iframed in with some JS code.
So really there isn't a way to fix it and make it work unless you don't use private mode in FF or unblock it.
But if you don't want to do that, I did add a way to disable Twitter and Instagram from the top right menu dropdown. Try it out and let me know if that solves your problem well.

That is a good point, I'll be thinking about this problem... let me know if you have any good ideas how to improve that without hurting infinite scroll. Right now I think I need to leave it for infinite scroll right, else if you click back you would lose your place.

I did just add Bing which is basically the same as DDG, you can switch to it from the menu on the top right to enable Bing instead of Google. Please try it out and let me know if that helps you.

Based on your feedback I've tried removing the horizontal scrollbar, but keeping the functionality. The scrollbar was a bit distracting and duplicative of the top buttons. Thank you!

Thank you. That is super big. I did push Wikipedia to be more in front when it is relevant. Also I did increase the column width a good amount yesterday after everyone's feedback. I tried widening it even more, but then the images felt too big and less columns are shown. I think it is a pretty good balance right now. Please try it out more now and let me know if you get used to it.

No keyboard shortcuts right now, but thinking about adding them. What keyboard keys would you like to use for that?
