How do I change the default search engine to yandex.com ?

more options

Hello Firefox friends o/

Anyone knows how do I make https://yandex.com my default search engine? (in the top bar of the browser). I have attached a screenshot of my settings page. Please have a look at the suspicious lack of an "Add" button 🤔. Despite my efforts, the drop-down menu will not show the available options in the screenshot, you will have to take my word for it, the only available options in that menu are: Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, eBay and Wikipedia (en).

P.S. The settings page in Firefox must change really often, as I seen so many people suggesting many outdated methods online.

This is the link: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/search-engines/ And this is the addon I found: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/yandex-search-english

It did solve my issue, for now. Having to install an addon to change the default search is... very odd.

Installing by way of extension can be one of the ways to install some search engines.
