   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

• YaCy, a distributed Web Search Engine, based on a peer-to-peer network

  There are already many project about search: - https://www.marginalia.nu/ - https://searchmysite.net/ - https://lucene.apache.org/ - elastic search - https://presearch.com/ - https://stract.com/ - https://wiby.me/ I think that all project are fun. I would like to see one succeeding at reaching mainstream level of attention. I have also been gathering links meta data for some time. Maybe I will use them to feed any... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

  See also: Presearch, another decentralized search engine, claimed that it will be open source. No source code available at the moment though. https://presearch.com/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• Is anyone else just exhausted from seeing all these obviously bullshit "articles"

  Just withdraw yourself from Social Media, use http://presearch.com, they don't give you ridiculous suggestions when you're searching, and don't bury your results in one whole page of advertisements and sponsored websites. Source: 11 months ago

• Little beginners question :)

  I recommend searching with presearch.com or searxNG. Try "Arch Linux append text to file". The Wiki and Debian documentation are indispensable. Source: 12 months ago

• Can't move two selected windows with the move right/left commands between monitors.

  Consider using presearch.com or searxNG as you search engines. If you haven't already, do please scour the user guide top to bottom more than once, because it's all there. Here's one search result for some extra reading. Source: almost 1 year ago

• 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 / 6 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
