I used google for most of my life, for the past couple months I’ve been using brave search, but I still end up using google often because google images is far better than brave search images. I’m also worried that maybe brave search isn’t the best choice. What would you guys recommend?

    I use Bing because it gives points at ~$5/month from letting it spy on you. Microsoft doubles their points to $10/month when you send to a charity. Using Bing vs technically/privately better options gets ~$120/yr sent to the FSF. I asked FSF and they validated that they get what MSFT says they send.

    Regarding more privacy-marketed search engines, I perceive the privacy argument from corporate search as marketing. Any corporate search engine should be selling your data to maximize profit, even if you pay monthly.
