Hi, we don't have a search engine. In Firefox you can use whatever you want, for instance google or duckduckgo.

The company Mozilla does not have a search engine of their own like the DuckDuckGo, Bing, Google search engines examples.

Firefox is a web browser and you can add/use just about any search engine you want in Firefox. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/add-or-remove-search-engine-firefox https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/change-your-default-search-settings-firefox
