Buying info to advertise privacy has more than a little irony but I'd like to think the DDG people are earnestly trying to improve the state of things. I mean, the browser isn't Sriracha, it's going to need to be advertised a bit. What other android browsers are cross platform, block ads, and have email proxies built in with autofill? My 70 year old mom has largely stopped using chrome for ddg, and sees way way less ads. She couldn't be paid to use firefox. Where do the other browsers stack up relatively?

Brave - auto-generated "donation" pages the donee had no idea existed, collected for them without informing the donors.

Chrome - tries to drag everything along with it, changing the landscape for developers and content creators in sometimes a decidedly self-interested way.

Firefox - uses the browser as a bait and switch to fund the other adventures, arguably with too few engineers and too much income disparity.

Like the sibling comment said though, there are alternatives for the email proxy. DDG's is convenient.

I personally use https://simplelogin.io, owned by proton.

You get it for free with Proton Unlimited, and you can use your own custom domain for aliases.

I switched to this from self hosting anonaddy and it's managed to pull ahead of anonaddy a bit in features. I just wish these guys all had easy import and export of email aliases.

I used a service a few years ago that went out of business and it was a pita to update the accounts I cared about. Ever since I’ve been leery about using some of the smaller companies for this.

I’ve been using Masked Email via Fastmail/1Password and the iCloud version.

I'd prefer a full blown duck email interface like what gmail offers. Give me that and I'm done with gmail.
