I'd like to try using this, but I like to search by "all regions" and it won't ever save my preferences in Fennec

I'm usually connected to a VPN, so it incorrectly auto-detects my region, and also I just don't like the idea that results are being served based on regional trends and interests

Yes! That's how I do it with Mojeek, which is my current search engine of choice
