They have a browser but from what I gather, it's just Chrome / Firefox fork no. 35,683 with a custom skin and a few add-ons pre-installed.
It is the search engine
They have both.
Kagi is great in case anyone’s curious. Am a real user not a shill :-)
I switched like a year ago. Much better experience. Not just browsing, but like life in general.
Takes companies a little while to catch up to the times on technology, but a win is a win!
Seriously everyone I know gets at least one fraud phone call a day. Our society is subjected to fraud attempts personally every single day. It’s horse shit and I hate it.
