Pixel Launcher will soon allow you to choose the default web 'Search engine'.
The app build that comes with Android 14 QPR2 Beta 3 contains a hidden search settings item called "Search Engine". This feature will allow you to choose an app for the web search.

Again, there are daily builds that can be downloaded straight from GitHub and installed. That’s what I’m running. The only significant downside to it is that new builds don’t install over old builds so you have to backup/restore via the launcher’s settings.
I only use Lawnchair because of the Arcticons icon pack, it doesn’t seem to work with the default trebuchet launcher. At least it didn’t last time I checked.
All the other launchers Arcticons supports are either exclusive to the Play Store, or simply not what I like, so Lawnchair it is.
Yeah okay, fair enough. But still, nothing for us users since August 2022

Okay, I think I just didn’t understand what you meant.
Where do I find these daily builds though? I’m being extremely oblivious right now
Edit:
Found it, but I’d need to make a Github account to access these debug APKs
Could be the case. I’m almost always logged in. MS started putting some Github features behind login over the last year.
