There might be some changes that could improve it further:
- ~~Remove Brave~~
- ~~Maybe add Signal; It's easier than Element, but it's also centralized~~
- Stop suggesting Linux Mint specifically
- Recommend Hosted Nextcloud
- ~~Add GrapheneOS~~
- Maybe add Delta chat
- ~~Maybe remove Bluesky~~
- ~~Remove Stremio and add Jellfyin (even though it's selfhosted and not a direct equivalent)~~
- ~~Add ente because Immich is selfhosted~~
- ~~Add aurora~~
- ~~Add SearxNG~~
- Add SimpleX
- Add lichess
- Add pCloud
Any other suggestions?

Yeah, I was gonna sayโฆ Recommending Brave isnโt a great look right now. Especially right in the wake of the Brave CEO going off on that unhinged ultra conservative rant.
And Firefox recently had its own controversy, with the removal of their โwe promise never to sell your infoโ section of their ToS. When questioned, they basically responded with โwell some jurisdictions define โsellโ as โexchanging for moneyโโฆ We donโt agree with that. But because some jurisdictions do define it that way, we need to remove that section. All we want to do is exchange your info for money. But again, we donโt think that should be considered selling your info.โ
What rant?

Did you respond to the right comment? I was discussing browsers, not search engines.
