Those bang queries are great, but even faster is adding npmx search to the address bar in Firefox (via right click once) with a keyword (e.g. "@n"). Firefox also supports type ahead and search suggestions from npmx.dev this way. Other browsers will likely offer similar mechanisms (not tested).

even without google search messing with websites' titles, @kagi.com has been playing a really good game at luring me into their service, to be honest

Absolutely. I use “npm” as a shortcut in Chrome. npm <tab> package-name <enter> Works like a charm

It doesn't support navigating directly to the package... But that is easily fixed by custom bookmarks

I can navigate to a package directly, e.g. @n<tab> prea<tab>/sig<tab><return> takes me directly to -> npmx.dev/package/@pre...

Opensearch is such a good feature, it's a shame nothing besides firefox supports it anymore. (you can right-click on the URL bar to easily add it on npmx.dev) In chrom*, they expect you to use an extension per search engine or manually add the replacement string in the settings window.
