Hi everyone,

I’m choosing a default search engine and I’m torn between DuckDuckGo and Brave Search. What matters most to me:

Privacy: what’s actually logged, and can the claims be trusted? Independence from Big Tech: DDG partly relies on Bing, while Brave has its own index. Result quality: relevance for daily, technical and niche queries. Trust: track record, controversies, business model.

Which one do you use daily, and why? Have you noticed a real quality difference? Thanks!

    And then you find Home Assistant and don’t stop until you literally have the lights automatically be precisely on you and only you, wherever you go in your house.

      I am in some self hosting lemmy group, I was given so much heck for still using ring, I needed to fix a motion sensor flood light when I figured it out and told people what I had done I got so many downvotes.

      I get it ring is not good, but I have a vLAN (10.6.66.0/24) that does not have access to the WAN.
