If you search DuckDuckGo: What’s my IP it shows it directly in the search

SearXNG has maximum privacy and results, but it’s a bit too complicated for the average person. DuckDuckGo has worse results than google because of Bing base, Startpage is similar to DuckDuckGo, but it has as good results as google. Brave search has good results and is not reliant on other search engines.

Mojeek has pretty bad results. I’d only use it to avoid censorship of results

Isn’t this illegal in the EU? They just forced MS to offer alternative search providers for their search, so this is basically the same thing?

Librewolf but like... for chromium?

My main browser is Librewolf but I keep a chromium browser just in case. Previously used brave but their flatpak is shit. Ungoogled chromium seems ok but it looks like they don’t change much from upstream chromium. Any good chromium browsers which harden their browsers like librewolf does for more privacy?

Thorium is good for privacy and speed but not security, Vivaldi isn’t that private, ungoogled chromium removes everything google. Brave also has packages available for manual installation if you want to give it another try

The repo shows all the patches. It uses some patches from ungoogled chromium for privacy. It isn’t my recommendation here, I just mentioned it because Brave didn’t work for OP

Ubuntu and fedora aren’t lightweight, I recommend Linux Mint XFCE or peppermint OS

RmDebArc_5,
@RmDebArc_5@lemmy.ml avatar

No not really. Gnome for me is about 2.5 gigs of Ram, XFCE 700 megabytes and the CPU load also is way lower. XFCE can be heavy or light depending on how you configure it

It is 2tb. If you look in your drive manager you will see: 2tb. The 0.2tb missing are from the formatting

Use what distro you like, but most distros are very easy to install (some even easier than Ubuntu I would argue). KDE Neon would be a good starting point in that regard. What exactly is hard to understand about Plasma? I have heard this sometimes now but I really don’t get it, I find it to be very easy to understand as it integrates for example theming

RmDebArc_5,
@RmDebArc_5@lemmy.ml avatar

It should work on Mint as well, but the theming may be off you will probably have to redo Icons and such. Just FYI, XFCE can totally look like Gnome (look at rhino Linux) if you theme it. You may consider installing the SaveDesktop app and redoing your XFCE setup (the unixporn community has some great inspiration)

Vivaldi has this functionality baked in. It’s basically Firefox + custom css + extensions in a refined way

YesBut I meant buying a new pc that supports windows 11 instead of installing Linux
