   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

• DuckDuckGo AI Chat

  Pretty cool! I use Brave Search (https://search.brave.com) and it too got AI results a few months ago. They're quite helpful! - Source: Hacker News / 13 days ago

• Are my searches tracked by google if I us google seach in Brave?

  Best way to protect yourself from that is to use other search engines that do not track you (I really like Brave Search, but if you want Google results without tracking try Startpage). Source: 5 months ago

• Any more info on the armbian image for Helm v1?

  All I can find on the status of Armbian images for Helm v1 hardware is in the farewell message at thehelm.com: "We are still working on firmware updates for v1 servers to run Armbian." I am very much looking forward to having my v1 server running a Linux server so I can repurpose it, and for all other v1 owners to have that same option. So much good, and once quite expensive, hardware needs to be saved from... Source: about 1 year ago

• Protonmail Recommended Browsers

  I guess it depends on which parts they need to be better. From a functionality standpoint I would list, hey.com, fastmail and icloud as better. mailbox.org is better on being a traditional mail host you access using your own client (no wierd bridge app). hey.com and icloud are US hosted if that matters to you. For the semi selfhosted options https://thehelm.com seems like a really good option. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

  There are some attempts: https://thehelm.com/ The problem is that it's not cheap to keep running, if you want it to integrate with the rest of the Net (i.e. Also handle email and such). - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago
