Firefox + DuckDuckGo search engine

nah, search.brave.com is the new duckieduckie

Not sure why people are downvoting you. I agree with this sentiment. Results are better than DDG and even has bangs. They even have their Brave AI like Google's small pop-up boxes when searching for questions, etc.
I suppose Brave is a sketchy company itself, but I've read the privacy policy and ToS for brave, and I see nothing sketchy. It's nice and private, as search engines should be.

Eh, its just their built-in cryptominer that makes folks insecure. Other than that, its a pretty gucci browser.
And regarding downvotes...? Something something "(Any sort of negative behavior) is the best form of flattery."

It's a built-in cryptominer, it's the ideological concerns about the crypto-bros in charge, it's the insertion of their own ads, it's the insertion of their own referral codes into users' links, and it's the fact that aside from all that under the hood it's just the Chromium browser so why not just use plain-ass Chromium if you're into that.

Brave is better equipped than even Ungoogled Chromium against most online fingerprinting and stuff. I don't like Brave Rewards and the crypto stuff but then most of the them are either opt-in by default or easy to disable. You can even disable the VPN feature entirely using a chromium flag (about:flags). Also, the BAT stuff isn't based on mining, just ads. The affiliate link thing was scummy for sure though.

Just another bing frontend

What about DuckDuckGo on PC and Brave on mobile?
-
Firefox + ublock origin + DuckDuckGo on mobile.

...I was about to post about it -- "Embrace the lion side of the force" but yeah, doubleduck isnt that great anymore and you should use brave search engine for both pc and mobile instead. That also goes for the brave browser.

What about SearX?

SearX/SearXNG quite goated not gonna lie.
