Ex-DDG Browser user here. Personally, it's not very good. I really only used it whenever a site, usually the pesky ones by the government, broke in Librewolf (my main browser).
It's better than Chrome, of course. Out of the box, DDG blocks trackers and ads to a certain extent as it has an extension of the same name embedded into the browser. However, it has no extension support (cannot install extensions fr the Chrome Web Store), making it subpar when it comes to content blocking (no uBlock origin) and customization (no DarkReader), among others.
Really, you're better off using Firefox with uBlock origin set at medium mode.
I feel that the only use case for DDG browser is for non-technical people like me to have a more private browsing experience without much tinkering. Yet, it takes very little reading and experimentation to understand how uBlock origin's medium mode works and how it is waaaaay better at ad blocking and in preventing/minimizing cross-site tracking.
I'm the youngest of three siblings, the eldest of which is 6 years older than me.
I heard from others that I don't fit the youngest child stereotype — something about me being more mature and responsible than they expected.
Well, if you have an irresponsible eldest brother who's lazy AF, disgusting, freeloader, financially irresponsible, and seemingly has no ambition, anyone would be forced to mature early regardless of the order of birth.
I wished I had a sibling that I can look up to and ask for advice. I wished I didn't have to navigate through stuff alone, because someone I trust knows what to do.
I can't really ask for a grown-up input from my other sibling, since we're only a year apart. Sigh.

woah! i speak Cebuano, yet I didn't know a Cebuano Wikipedia exists :0
It does! It's disabled by default though, but it can be toggled in the settings
hey, there's a setting in librewolf where you can enable/disable webgl! you don't even have to do it via about:config
afaik, you can enable firefox sync in librewolf so you can share all those to firefox on mobile

I really needed this, thanks!
Cromite has no extension support though.
A randomizer would be great!

Did you mean Mullvad Browser? Mull is discontinued by the sole developer, and it wasn't run by a company.
