You are putting me on!! Thanks!!

Thanks for the screenshot. I love trying out new software and I haven’t heard of half of those engines. Whoogle caught my eye.

I love that it replaced almost 10 different apps on my phone. Very uncommon for an app to do that, especially a FOSS app.

I replaced all of my searches with Andi and it was as advertised. Didn’t beat around the bush at all. Though Brave is a lot better with programming questions and obscure references. I went back and forth testing each out.

That is very interesting, you should make the developers aware of this! https://gitlab.com/AuroraOSS/AuroraStore I personally don’t use Android Auto and I can’t see what the disconnect would be considering Aurora Store is only a client, and shouldn’t interfere with an app’s structure. I’ve been using it for a little over a year now and have updated major system apps like Google Play Services, Android System Webview, Android AICore, etc etc, without any glitching or incompatibilities. I’d be curious to see why Android Auto performs this way. I wonder if it depends on the Google Play Store for it to work. That’s a new thing I’ve noticed that Google and Microsoft are doing, they’re forcing their products to be dependent on eachother, for anything to work. Seemingly as a workaround for people who outsource to other services, such as FOSS alternatives.

I am a fan of Startpage as well! They also have an onion site. Anytime I see that, it is a green flag to me considering there’s an inherent favoring for anonymity. With that, I know your recommendations are reliable and I’ll put Andi to the test. Everybody says they have the best AI, so the only way to find out is with testing. I do need to stop using Google…

The AI (Leo) always gives me what I’m looking for, no matter how obscure my inquiries get, and handles all of my programming questions exceptionally well. I still have to go to Google when searching for images, but I believe in Brave and our searches will help to build it. Plus, it has an onion site, for secure searches while using the Tor Browser. In general I love Brave’s support for Tor. If you’d like me to link the onion site, let me know.
