With the number of people concerned about privacy, it is a wonder why chrome is even popular.

Jokes on you. I’ve never used Chrome (outside of work limitations). I always liked the way Firefox looked over Chrome so never really got into it. I do use Edge Chromium every so often since some pages work better, but not sure if this would apply or not.
Also, does anyone know about the Duckduckgo beta browser, specifically what engine it uses? I tried it on a couple pages, but it seems pretty buggy right now.
Wasn’t there a whole anti-trust issue with duckduckgo a while ago, with duckduckgo exempting Microsoft trackers from its ad block? Link
They admitted that by contractual obligation, in exchange for using bing as the underlying search engine they have to let in some trackers from microsoft, though they do mention in their response that this is not applicable to their search engine (?).
As for the beta program for duckduckgo on windows, I think most issues might be ironed out in time.
I somehow missed the antitrust thing, but it’s not unexpected; especially considering they use Bing as their search index. Thing is, there isn’t really a better search engine if you want to limit trackers as far as I know.
