    I have mostly used Google but i also have used Bing and Yahoo just few times. Google is the one that i use because of consistence for the most searches i do.

    I've learned that from school and decided to try it during that time. Haha
     
  8. I've started using DuckDuckGo more often, not exactly because of privacy although it is a small factor, but because I believe that the tech industry should be more diverse and not controlled as a monopoly. And one thing I like about DuckDuckGo is that you can actually customize your theme to dark theme, which I don't think you can do with Google. Another pro to DuckDuckGo is that it doesn't recommend any bias as the top search result (one of the problems with Google is that they've been biased for a long time and censoring certain search results).

    Another thing great about DuckDuckGo, if you haven't already set it as your default search engine, is that it's less typing to go to the site (you just type duck.com or ddg.gg, which is less typing than google.com).

    Mostly, I've used Bing as my search engine (for about 3 years) because of its Microsoft Rewards program. Not long ago, I ended up redeeming my reward points on a $10 Best Buy gift card, because I saw a 128GB micro SDXC memory card at a reduced price on the Canadian Best Buy website. But if I want to search up a local address and directions, then I'd use Google.
     
  10. Brave is coming out with a new search engine and this search engine happens to respect privacy like DuckDuckGo, so it's something I might try whenever it becomes available. For now, I'm still using DuckDuckGo, but I am looking forward to trying other search engines like the upcoming Brave.

    None of the above I use CryptoTab,used to use Modzilla but I don’t since CryptoTab.
     
  12. Seems obscure, but I guess it's cryptocurrency-related that not a whole lot of people would know or have heard about it, and it looks to be a browser. Personally I think a cyptocurrency extension for an existing browser is a whole lot better than installing a new browser specific to the task, unless you have multiple browsers each designed for their own purpose and for privacy concerns then I guess that's an alternative to consider.
