All of a sudden, Amazon search has popped up on the right click contextual menu for me. Haven’t seen it before today. I can’t find a way to remove it either; I’d prefer not to be reminded every time I try to copy something that I can buy Travis County district court on Amazon. I use the app a lot because of Amazon lockers as well as shopping at an Amazon fresh store. So deleting it (which would presumably remove it) really isn’t a great choice for me.
Anyone else encountering this? Any solutions? Thanks for any help.
EDIT: After some great comments, I decided to reininstall/reboot and that seemed to have gotten rid of it. TBD if it comes back though. Would still like to know if it’s possible to adjust that menu. Some apps I use are hidden behind the overflow menu, which would be cool if I could reorganize. Thanks!
SUPA EDIT: Did some more sleuthing and may have found an answer. As I commented here, try putting your app in deep sleep. While it kills all background activity, I think it also stops apps from displaying the problem app’s menu button.
At this point I’m starting to believe that they’re maliciously complying with European antitrust laws. I remember reading recently that they got a friendly reminder that defaulting to their own search engine is a monopolistic practice and I started noticing this kind of stuff after that
Doesn’t mean they couldn’t include an option for a user to pick a default, though.
Which is why I think this is them doing malicious compliance. “Oh, you didn’t pick a default search engine ? Guess we’ll just use whatever instead of not displaying the search option or prompting you to pick a search engine”
