   Brave Search is way better than other search engines.

   In contrast to other "private" search engines (except for Presearch and SearX), it doesn't have trackers, or not nearly as many. This information can be verified by installing uBlock Origin and ClearURLs, which detect 0 and 2 trackers respectively, against for example DuckDuckGo's nearly 10 and 19. Other alternatives are SearX (No trackers AT ALL, still kinda user-friendly) and Presearch (A bit easier to use but a tiny bit worse for privacy, it has 1 more tracking element).

   Competitors: DuckDuckGo, Mojeek, StartPage, Presearch, Searx, Google, Bing, Yahoo, Ecosia, Ask.com, Qwant

   Pros:    Good search results|Not too many trackers|Not buggy|Easy to use

   Cons:    Has 2 tracking url elements

• Firefox for iOS now has a native adblocker

  I don't know why people still use Google. They've sold out and literally been documented reducing search quality to serve more ads. I use https://search.brave.com by default everywhere and for things even they don't want to show you, there's https://yandex.com. I only use google as a last resort. - Source: Hacker News / 20 days ago

• Ask HN: What are the viable alternatives to DuckDuckGo?

  Https://search.brave.com other things that came up in a search not mentioned in post yet (that I have heard of before): mojeek or yacy - are these any good?

• Brave Search is the default search engine for AI agents -- not Google

  1. Check your site on Brave Search. Go to search.brave.com, search for your site name, your top articles, your product. Compare the results to Google. You might find articles that rank well on Google but are invisible on Brave -- or the reverse. When I first did this, I discovered several of my technical posts were completely absent from Brave's index despite ranking on the first page of Google. Different index,... - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago

• Preums, reminds me that coding without AI is magical

  That alone breaks the basic rule of TDD. And there are great tools like DuckDuckGo, Brave Search and StackOverflow to help us with our needs. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago

• Basic PostgreSQL on the Command Line

  After spending a few days on the CodeAlly platform that is included in freeCodeCamp's lessons, I decided to try looking back into my local install and get a set of basic instructions together. This will help when I return to my Flatiron projects to convert them to Postgres and deploy them to publicly available servers. For more information on installing Postgres, see https://www.postgresql.org/. - Source: dev.to / over 4 years ago

• Encouragement for freeCodeCamp's Relational Database Course

  The browser based version of the certificate was released only recently, and it runs entirely in a virtual instance of VS Code using CodeAlly to login and manage the challenges, and the CodeRoad extension to execute the challenges within VS Code. - Source: dev.to / over 4 years ago

• Service that integrate git, video chat and live codding for Open Source project support

  Recently found this service https://codeally.io/ and I like the idea it uses. It use video chat with live codding to hire developers. I would love to use something like this to support my open source projects (at least to try if it work) I'm mainly developing JavaScript library and target developers so it would be perfect if I could fix their code or write the code in their own eyes. I may even use it for... Source: over 5 years ago
