Unpopular opinion : Bing is a better search engine than Google when it comes to piracy (lemmy.world)

Google is way to compliant to DMCA request resulting in bad result. Bing doesnt seems to care and will happily link to live and replay of sport event (the main reason I use it personnaly) even as a first result.

PS : If you're french dont forget to change your DNS or any quality site will not load

I second the recommendation. I know a lot of people don't like the browser (although I find that a lot of that dislike comes somewhat misleading rumors or stories) but the search engine really doesn't have anything to do with the browser except that it's by the same company. I often switch between it and Duck Duck Go, and I don't use Brave browser.

Just my 2c on the browser, I tend to prefer setups that I do or make as part of a guide so that I feel more in control and more aware of what's running on my PC, so I much prefer taking the time to install LibreWolf and then add a dozen extensions to it.

However, Brave is still a browser I recommend to the casual who wants more privacy for how convenient it is. And I do daily drive it on iOS too for the built in adblocking, which (to my knowledge) can't be done on the iOS build of Firefox.

Same, I am a life long Firefox user and switch between the two, in most cases the results can keep up with DDG or beat it but sometimes (especially for regional stuff) it dose struggle and DDG dose a better job, that's usually not piracy related tho.
