Comment on We are better than google

  There's a fantastic plugin for google chrome based browsers called Privacy Redirect that automatically redirects twitter, instagram, youtube, google maps, google translate, reddit, wikipedia, and search URLs to free services.

  Searx is a great choice I host and use myself. It's an open source web application that goes through a bunch of search engines and presents all the different search results ad-free. I exclusively use my own instance that excludes google search results, and it's great. Google search is getting too big for its britches, so I avoided them, but I consistently get excellent results.

    Yes, i've used it, but i think there are better ones. Chrome is a browser i use less often, when there are other options about... Even mildly more private ones like brave and opera, if tor and i2p isn't your thing.

      Brave is based on chrome, I exclusively use brave and use the privacy redirect plugin.

        I know it is, its one of many, but users shpuld nlt be under any illusions about how much actual privacy it offers.-
