I wouldn't be surprised if she'd just pulled that 225M out of her ass to not look completely clueless, as it's right in the middle of the ballpark 200-250M she mumbled about earlier.

Mozilla deals with Google

With how much revenue comes from those deals, we might say it's practically financed by Google. FF is more Google than Chromium-based Brave if you follow the money.

There's no push. You can completely ignore that part of Brave, which I do.

I don’t want to use Brave Search for a number of reasons.

Mind sharing? I'm curious because I switched to DDG several days ago, after a good while of using Brave. My reasons were:

  • defaulting to Moderate safe search every couple of days
  • inability to provide me with good results for simple '[word] wiktionary' queries
  • having to block some elements of their result templates manually, using their own browser's filtering feature (featured snippets, definitions etc)
  • poorer search results compared to what they were a year, two ago

Some people here mentioned Kagi and I liked it a lot when I was beta-testing it, but I will only start paying for using it when they introduce full support for Boolean operators, which most likely means never.

This. You'd be surprised how much good stuff you can find on those and similar services. Once I learned about them, I practically stopped torrenting.

Waterproofing requirement means that glue is mandatory even with the presence of a gasket

Huh?
