Version 0.9.27
Released Sep 7, 2024 - 439.87 KBWorks with firefox 115.0 and later, android 120.0 and laterSource code released under GNU General Public License v3.0 only
Version 0.9.26
Released Sep 6, 2024 - 439.85 KBWorks with firefox 115.0 and later, android 120.0 and laterBug Fixes- Bangs should again trigger without having to retry (see #20).
Changed- When you add a new bang, the first text input will now be focused and ready for you to type.
Did you know?- You can also use bangs as site shortcuts (without specifying
{{{s}}}
). For example, to quickly access the Yang! settings, you can add a bang!y
with the URL of the extension (note that this URL might change every now and then).
Non-user-facing Changes- This version embeds some performance improvements. For example, search engines tend to make a lot of requests aside from the search request itself (e.g., to pre-fetch data, telemetry, etc.). We now employ a more aggressive filtering, so that all these unrelated requests are not considered by Yang!.

Yang allows to set up to three characters to trigger bangs. The characters are not restricted to symbols, which means that anything can be used (e.g., letters, numbers, etc.)
Changed- Yang now uses Kagi Bangs as default bangs. In case connection fails, Yang fallbacks to using DuckDuckGo bangs.
- There is a new Settings page where you can change the bang symbol.
- Backups have been moved to the new Settings page.
Did you know?- On desktop, when adding/editing bangs or updating settings, you can press Ctrl+Enter (or Cmd+Enter) to save the changes.

Version 0.9.20
Released May 15, 2024 - 430.96 KBWorks with firefox 78.0 and later, android 120.0 and laterNew Features- Support has been added for the following search engines:
- A new option has been added to open the base URL when executing a custom bang with no query (e.g.,
!ddg
). This option is enabled by default for all non-custom bangs.
Changed- Custom bangs are now case-insensitive (i.e.,
!osm
≡!OSM
≡!Osm
, etc.). This is particularly useful for mobile, since keywords often uppercase the letter following an exclamation mark.
Bug Fixes- Queries are now properly encoded.
- It is no longer possible to add/edit custom bangs with no/malformed URLs. This was happening due to a validation bug.
