What I’m saying is that if you type “cat videos” in the search bar, it will immediately search the KDE Discover app store for relevant results, by default. It’s not searching the entire web but it’s still sending a request to the internet, one that can be tracked and shared (for example if you have Flathub enabled in KDE Discover, and Flathub happens to use Google analytics on their servers, then Google would know about everything you type in the search bar)
