Yes that much is clear, but DDG has a privacy bent to their engine too. It just seems like working with DDG to remove that fault would be beneficial to both parties. If I recall, DDG chose to use Bing to remove Google from the equation but also prevent the need to reinvent the wheel. Brave for all their technological progress and talk about improving the web, often seem to promote only themselves with their advancements. They aren’t required to share anything however. The parroting of bangs is just a bit hostile is all. |

Is Microsoft an underdog now? Why do you consider them any better than Google, especially after the "tank man" fiasco?
I don't see why it's a bad thing to make your own thing or to only promote your own company.
Brave isn't reinventing the wheel either, they purchased & revived Tailcats from Cliqz (https://0x65.dev/)
The bang operators are a small feature that are easy to implement, nothing special. Taking inspiration and features from competitors is nothing new.
Even in this thread there was a user asking for them, saying they'd switch over if Brave implements them (they already have them obviously)
I don't even think DDG came up with them first...
