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.

What about DuckDuckGo on PC and Brave on mobile?

Firefox + ublock origin + DuckDuckGo on mobile.
