[Solved!] How to change the default homepage in qutebrowser ?

Solution :

  • :set
  • In this list of options find the entry with the default DDG and change it
  • :save

The reason I had trouble starting to find the solution is because qutebrowser is not using a configuration file by default (from version 1.0 or something onward) and I got lost in the qutebrowser help which has countless entries. Thanks to the Arch Linux wiki I figured out more.

Read the fine manual. They spent the time writing it, the least you can do is read it. https://qutebrowser.org/doc/help/settings.html

Thanks for pointing to documentation. The Arch Linux wiki just saved the day.

As the person before me wasn't greatly helpful (gave a website but that's it. You will change url.default_page to something that isn't https://start.duckduckgo.com/

Check out :set url.default_page and :set url.start_pages.
