privacy seems interesting, i guess I'll see what's it about didn't really think of it much when i moved from Canada to the eu
you can see this is a throwaway account, you likely won't get replies. btw i recently switched from edge to arc browser since i got an invite somehow (am using startpage as my search engine)
Startpage was bought out by advertising company System1
- EDIT
- Qwant seems decent
- a lot of claims Duckduckgo has morphed into being a frontend for Bing
- SearXNG (updated replacement for SearX) gets good reviews, but have to be prepared to hop instances as Google blocks them
- Kagi is a subscription service that people seem to love
when i checked YouTube i found mental outlaw in my recommendations, he seems like a good starting base.
Enjoy exploring! Hope you find it to be a good experience
Eventually you might find that you're coming back to the PrivacyGuides.org page, that's what most people recommend these days as a starting point for recommended tools. There are a lot of companies out there advertising privacy and security without actually PROVIDING privacy and security. It's becoming a new buzzword

You don't have to take my word for it though, just keep exploring and learning :)
The specific breakdown was as follows
We recommend Mullvad Browser if you are focused on strong privacy protections and anti-fingerprinting out of the box, Firefox for casual internet browsers looking for a good alternative to Google Chrome, and Brave if you need Chromium browser compatibility.
So I think they only recommend Brave for those that need Chromium
For mobile browsers, I don't quite understand the differences between each. I personally use Mull when I need it, but Brave might be better on Mobile still?
