Anyone used Duck Duck Go browser? 20:07 - Mar 17 with 719 viewsRyorry

Browser only, not search engine - or are they inextricably bound?

Thinking of switching from Chrome.

Poll: Why can't/don't we protest like the French do? 🤔

I use both . It's a really good browser. It doesn't use anything from Google.

It’s OK, but it’s just using Bing search underneath DDG (and you can only use the DDG search engine in the browser).

Firefox is a better featured browser, open source, not-for-profit (albeit Mozilla relies on a huuuuuge Google payment every year) and you can change the default engine to DDG, Ecosia, Bing or whatever. Personally, I use FF and get Google results via Startpage https://www.startpage.com/ as Bing’s results are poor in comparison and it strips out all the tracking.
