Top 10 Best Search Engines

Over the past several months I’ve tested dozens of search engines including some of the newer ones which are powered by AI. Based on my tests I’ve come up with a top 10 list of the search engines that I liked the best going over the pros and cons of each. These won’t be in any particular order but as usual, I’ll save the best overall for last.

It won't end good if we combine the amount of data Google collects with Microsoft's and Meta's, among other tech companies, including ByteDance.

Thanks for the video! Very interesting!

6:55 Good example, Brett! Like talking to people, AI seems to have a pretty broad range when it comes to accuracy and credibility, and that's going to be exploited, for certain! 😎✌️

[Mikesadventures-mq]

I didn't know yahoo was still in business.

[KazrBrekker]

So any search engine that's not Google is basically Bing 🤣

[ianmathieson]

What’s the difference between privacy features on websites you’ve reviewed here and Apple’s Privacy page in Safari?

Should've covered Kagi as well. Would've fit in well with this video. Brave and Kagi are definitely my top two search engines

[Greg-koow]

My go to browsers are Brave and Via. Don't see Via mentioned in a lot of browser reviews.

[victoriabrister]

Interesting and informative. Thank you.

@Brett in Tech
Thank you for another Great Video 👍 Question for you about Brave. To date, I have only used Yahoo and Google. How hard is it to install. And will it cause conflicts with other software? Again thank you.

[FRN]

I've used DDG for many years, but you persuaded me, Brett: Brave from now on.

[ubahni]

i wish startpage actually worked properly

[DougNederland]

I think Brave is the best and I use it because it is accurate, fast and private.

[poluefemus]

i still use google because it’s fast and gives good results

[sapelesteve]

Another video that I have to send off to my granddaughter in college! Thanks Brett! 👍👍
