Although I hate the Brave browser, the search engine is the most useful of the others. It gives me the most correct results compared to the others, even it sometimes ignores the quality resources.

I wonder your opinion about the search engine. Do you have any negative ones?

It’s fine. Not a fan of the AI garbage generator at the top. For obscure queries Big G still returns the best results and this will not change any time soon.

Something else that won’t change: If you’re not paying for a service, then that service will be trying to monetize you in some other way and will therefore have an incentive to spy on you.

You can disable the ai in settings.

I use brave as default search on Firefox, and search in incognito by default. On mobile, brave doesn’t save the “disable AI” setting so the slop is there for every search, not to mention slowing down the process.
