Bruh.

At this point I’m just using Brave (the only privacy search engine that indexes the web as apposed to just proxying results from another service) and fall back to Bing on the occasion I can’t get results there.

Google’s web results seem so bad that I don’t even go to them anymore if the privacy search engine doesn’t have good results. I go to gasp Bing.

As much as I hate to say it, Firefox is a privacy mess.

Pocket and Fakespot have very bad privacy policies. The Windows version has a unique Mozilla tracker if you download the installer from the website, and the android version has Google Analytics built in. The existing and new telemetry is a but heavy, but it’s anonymised so it’s really the lesser of the various evils.

My recommendation is LibreWolf & Fennec as alternatives.
