I want DuckDuckGo search engine URL to be "https://start.duckduckgo.com" instead of default "https://duckduckgo.com". How can I accomplish this?

Simply removing DuckDuckGo search engine from settings and then adding start.duckduckgo.com to search engines do not work as it produces "Search engine with this name already exists" error.

Any tips?

Hello, do you find there is a major difference between the two pages? You can make start.duckduckgo.com your homepage if you would like. The only difference I find is there are no prompts on the start.duckduckgo.com version when you clear cookies.
