I never use general-purpose search engines if I already know which website the thing I'm looking for is on (assuming that website has it's own search functionality.) If I am looking for a wikipedia article, I go to wikipedia and search for it there. If I am looking for a tweet, I go to twitter and search for it there. If I'm searching for something on HN, then it's algolia.
Search keywords in firefox make this easy. I can type "wiki train" into my address bar and it will take me directly to https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=train From a usability standpoint it's just as streamlined as typing the same into the address bar and expecting Google to find it for you, except you don't need Google.
Googling everything by default is a bad habit, but one Google obviously likes to encourage. They want everybody to rely on them for everything.
