   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

• Microsoft outage affects Bing, Copilot, DuckDuckGo and ChatGPT internet search

  I was talking about Brave Search (https://search.brave.com), not Brave browser. Seaech doesn't promote crypto. - Source: Hacker News / 13 days ago

• Microsoft outage affects Bing, Copilot, DuckDuckGo and ChatGPT internet search

  Brave rolled their own completely independent search [1] on what I assume is a relatively limited budget. It seems that regularly grabbing the data would be pretty easy. The harder part would be searching/ordering it in an efficient and meaningful way while avoiding SEO, but that seems more like a fun problem than a difficult one (if not both).

• Microsoft outage affects Bing, Copilot, DuckDuckGo and ChatGPT internet search

  Brave Search [1] is 100% independent. There's also Yandex [2] which also works excellently, but is biased towards more Russian language results. The image search is second to none though. [1] - https://search.brave.com/ [2] - https://yandex.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 13 days ago

• Microsoft outage affects Bing, Copilot, DuckDuckGo and ChatGPT internet search

  Nice to see https://search.brave.com/, https://entireweb.com and https://mojeek.com are still kicking it. In case anyone needs to know alternatives besides the monopoly that is Google. - Source: Hacker News / 13 days ago

• What Happened to DuckDuckGo?

  Https://search.brave.com/ using that as my default search engine on firefox since last year. Quite happy with the quality of results. - Source: Hacker News / 13 days ago

• So...As a default file manager, how did Finder perform today?

  You can check out some of its features here: Https://cocoatech.io/. Source: over 1 year ago

• Recommendation for app that makes the experience of macOS even better?

  PathFinder better finder, replaces stock finder. Source: over 2 years ago

• Navigating the Finder with many files and folders

  Cocoatech’s Path Finder is much faster to read folder content than any other complex finder like product (Finder, Forklift, QSpace). If you want even for reactivity, try Marta. Source: over 2 years ago

• Finder progress bar?

  It's personal preference so I'm not commenting on it. If "file explorer" by your definition is a window with have multiple columns for displaying file hierarchy, file list of current working directory, and file preview, get Pathfinder (https://cocoatech.com/). I myself can never understand why any people with sanity can work in that pesky layout that wastes two/third of screen space. Source: over 2 years ago

• Alternative to Finder find better file filtering

  Path Finder, ForkLift, and HoudahSpot are fine adjuncts/alternatives that are worth a try. Source: about 3 years ago
