I heard a lot of bad stuff about Brave and their CEO lately and am now unsure if the search engine is any good? Do they censor stuff? Is any data collected? Can it be considered private?

If you’d not recommend it, what are good alternatives and why? I was a long time duckduckgo user before, so anything similar to it or brave search would be great. I’m not into self hosting.

    Brave is alright for normies and maybe as a secondary browser.

    I’d try a SearX instance or SearX.be and use FireFox or Librewolf as a browser, at least as a primary way to look things up.
