Which search engine do you recommend?

[–] original_ish_name@lemm.ee -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't know

Maybe brave search?

I don't think brave is privacy friendly at all

Could you please explain why you don’t think Brave is privacy friendly?

I think Brave Search has a really good privacy policy.

Brave Search is designed to be private by default. We don’t collect personal information about you, your device or your searches. We also don’t transmit information to the web that could be used to profile you or track you or learn anything about you. Your searches are private to YOU.

It’s also worth noting that Brave has its own search index… as opposed to DuckDuckGo which uses Bing, and StartPage which uses Google.

Although admittedly this does mean that the search results from Brave Search isn’t the best at the moment. Hopefully this will improve with time.
