  • Surfraw

  • Also going to share this one, more for everyone else that's forgotten about it, https://gitlab.com/surfraw/Surfraw turns your terminal into a search engine. Its basically a wrapper around lynx (or any browser via the $BROWSER environment variable) to about 99% of every searchable site out there. Can even be extended with simple bash for new sites or even apis (yes, xml/rest/graphql apis).
