I don't think so. They have commercial agreements with Microsoft that forces them to not block their trackers, so who knows what else they are obliged to by contract

For non-search tracker blocking (eg in our browser), we block most third-party trackers. Unfortunately our Microsoft search syndication agreement prevents us from doing more to Microsoft-owned properties. However, we have been continually pushing and expect to be doing more soon.

until you release that due to needing an account, all your search queries are tied to your account and even if they claim not to, it would be trivial for Kagi to associate all of them with you.

and we don't have the code of their servers, we know nothing of how they handle this critical information, other than their "trust me bro".

(and even if they are not directly associating this information, if they store some kind of logs, it would probably be trivial for any third party that gets access to their servers to make the association. an again, we know nothing about their procedures)

the only right suggestion here.

how is this related to technology exactly? sadly, people of all kinds of professions are killed everyday. This belongs to a general news community, not to technology.

And to be clear, I'm just saying that this is the wrong community, not that I have anything against that poor person (even if the word CEO causes me repulsion at sight)

There's still some value that "private" forks add to the list - you can see how well a tweaked Firefox can perform.

Specially relevant in this page because this test uses Firefox as is, without installing uBlock Origin, which is ultra basic advice for privacy. IMO they do this to benefit Brave, but whatever.

No centralized services, please. I'd vote for either XMPP or SimpleX. IRC will also work for me.

XMPP

can you even read? It's under supported OSs, and it says that it also has other clients in the same box.

Should be useful for phones with unlockable bootloader.

Personally I don't like this kind of extensions since they affect your browser's fingerprint. But yeah, it looks bad.
