I've seen a lot of discourse over which browsers we use and I myself have made the switch from brave to firefox. I still use brave as my search engine though, so... which do yall recommend? Is brave's engine necessarily bad to use? I personally like its ui/theme.

For any given query, if you're not satisfied with the first results out of one search engine, try two competing ones. Next time you have a search, begin with whatever one did the best on your previous search. Iterate. Record and publish your results.

Folks were unsatisfied with AltaVista and Lycos; that's how Google won for a while. At one point, Yahoo stood for "You Always Have Other Options". You still do.
