I've found out about Polarity on my Android device and I'm loving your app. I've now tried it on the desktop and like it as well. However, unlike Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox it seems that Keyword searches are missing? On Firefox, my bookmarks also have keywords. So when I enter say g and then a space on my omnibar, the rest of the string will be a search on google. If I type in gm, I can start a search on Google Maps. Google Chrome has a more limited version on this, as everything must be a search. On Firefox, I map 1 to gmail.com and it loads that. This is not a search but rather a quicker way to load a webpage if I know my keywords.
Will this be added sometime in the future? I'd switch if you have it.

Hey ripekumquat and welcome to the forum!
This feature, or at least a very similar version of it, already exists within Polarity. You can access the Alias Manager by opening up the settings, navigating to the actions tab, and then clicking on "Alias Manager". This will bring up a window that will allow you to set up shortcuts to a website with a specified keyword along with keyboard mappings.
As for in site searches, it is pretty limited at the moment but you can search for items in the website by pressing SHIFT + Enter in the address box.
Hopes this helps!

Do you think is it possible for this search feature, via the URL bar (like Chrome) or via alias manager (like Firefox) will be added in the near future?

I will try to implement this feature in an updated in the near future.
