A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

It’d be a lot of work to build a search engine anywhere near as good as the existing alternatives,

And yet Brave Search has done so. You got to have to come up with better excuses for Mozilla's failure here.

Mozilla pushes DuckDuckGo. That is a feature, not a failure.

How exactly are they pushing DuckDuckGo by making Google the default? And anyway, DuckDuckGo is just a wrapper around Bing, so that's not even much of an improvement.
