@DoctorG Only one more thing, please!
What does this mean?
-
@ThePfromtheO I do not want to explain why i disagree in support for Brave Corp.
-
@DoctorG But, I don't promote Brave, as you saw!

I do not understand why users want to get suggestions by bing,com CoPilot.
Bing and its bot are really crazy "searchengine" which fails to use favicons correct and tries to think for users by suggesting wrong pages. -
@wintercoast said in "There's no need to download a new web browser."(Microsoft Edge):
Most of them just add privacy layers on top of (mostly) Microsoft and Google web indexes. Brave, Mojeek and Yandex are some exceptions, having heir own web indexes.
That layer of privacy is very valuable. And the existence of so many viable third party search front ends argues, if anything, for V. creating its own. It could be viable, and it might not be so technically involved.

@ThePfromtheO Then you could not have recognize that i have not addressed my answer to you.
But i always fear attacks of straight conservative tech dudes.

@paul1149 I agree privacy is valuable but I don't see that there's much Vivaldi can add here to an already crowded market.
-
@wintercoast Yes.
I think there is no need for Vivaldi Technologies to run a search engine/bot. More work, less money and time for browser. -
@DoctorG @wintercoast There are already a lot of other search engines.
-
@ThePfromtheO As well as other browser apps
-
@ThePfromtheO But Vivaldi stands out of all of them as being the most customizable one.
-
@DoctorG Not a fan boy of anyone, I just use whatever I happen to find valuable for specific purposes. I generally find there's never any one product that is best for me for all use cases. So I use a mix of Big Tech, small tech, closed and open source, commercial and free, as the case may be.
I'm currently writing this in Vivaldi on Windows 10. It's my default browser.
I also use Linux for other purposes, e.g., playing around with blockchain tech.
On my phone, I have Opera as default.
On my iPad I have Brave as default.
-
@ThePfromtheO Most people in these forums, I assume, care about customizability and features, but most users don't. They just want to browse and don't care about anything else. Or, if they do care, it will just be about privacy and nothing else.

Quando ti ritroveresti senza la tua intelligenza artificiale di fiducia, saresti come se fossi senza il tuo cervello.
Cerchiamo di essere reali: se l'intelligenza artificiale dovesse improvvisamente diventare non disponibile per qualsiasi motivo, credi davvero che potresti realizzare anche solo mezzo— o forse solo un quarto di ciò che ottieni oggi?AI è un aiuto, non un sostituto. L'ho usato molto negli ultimi due anni. Sono uno sviluppatore di software e per le attività tecniche è un ottimo risparmio di tempo. Ad esempio, ieri volevo scoprire quali sottocartelle in una cartella erano le più grandi. C'erano tonnellate di cartelle al suo interno, quindi ci sarebbero volute età per farlo manualmente - seleziona cartella, fai clic con il pulsante destro del mouse, proprietà - se fosse grande, aspetta che Windows calcoli le dimensioni della cartella.
Così ho chiesto all'IA di scrivere un C# programma per farlo. Avrei potuto farlo da solo, ma mi ci sarebbe voluto un po' per quello che era solo un compito una tantum.
Poi, quando scrivo effettivamente codice, l'intelligenza artificiale può aiutare con molte cose standard o semplicemente strutturalmente ripetitive che in genere facciamo come programmatori.
Prima dell'IA useremmo modelli, "maghi", frammenti di codice e altri aiuti alla produttività per questo genere di cose. I copiloti dell'intelligenza artificiale lo portano semplicemente al livello successivo. Ma devi ancora mantenere il tuo cervello impegnato e sapere abbastanza per controllare l'output dell'IA.

Ever used Startpage? It is one of the default search engines in Vivaldi (if you use it you make the Vivaldi team money); results come from Google, but privacy is protected by Startpage which takes care of blocking Google cookies
-
@Qarboz I used it for some time, but went back to Brave Search, since it's more accurate
-
@Qarboz Don't you wanna go on in English, please?

@ThePfromtheO Didn't get the point, and bet anyone didn't
