I think the HN title needs adjusted

Official announcement: https://blog.mozilla.org/en/firefox/ai-controls/

Merry Christmas, HN! Thanks for being one of the bright spots in my/the internet.

Just wanted to say this resonated. Thanks for the kind words, and here’s to 2026!

Just want to pop in to agree with the author. Thanks for making this a great virtual space, everyone!

Very interested to see how well the agentic features work compared to ChatGPT’s cloud version. At the very least, I imagine bot detection/prevention (I.e., CAPTCHA) will be less of issue with Google’s strategy since the browser’s fingerprint will differ Chrome user to Chrome user.

No first hand experience, but campfire (https://once.com/campfire) seems like a pretty great solution for this problem.

I made a feature request for this very thing within the latest version cycle. I imagine others have as well. Maybe they listened, maybe they didn’t, but here’s hoping!

Edit: I fell for the headline. This is only to export in markdown, not directly write in markdown. So close, yet so far.

I found this article much more informative:

Once I heard of ReplyGuy, I knew it was the beginning of the end for forums like Reddit

My strategy been to put my money where my mouth is and start paying for services that provide value to me (Kagi is one example - I’m a paying customer, and actually found this article using their small web site)

One thing I’m curious about is limits - if I pay for Kagi Ultimate, do I get the higher limit for GPT-4o that’s included with ChatGPT Plus?

I tested it out and it works well for things like building heights, actors in movies, common facts, etc.

In my experience, the only area Brave Search lacks in is local results (a common issue with all non-Google search engines), but outside of that, I prefer it to Google, Bing, and DDG (still trying out Kagi)

I’d rather them lean on Brave than Google or Bing

Ah, thanks @dang

The LibRedirect website has a great list of alternatives: https://libredirect.github.io/

Piped is one option: https://github.com/TeamPiped/Piped

There's also Mullvad browser: https://mullvad.net/en/browser

Same here. I spread my web browsing between a handful of browsers, but when I want things to “just work”, Brave is my go-to.

I noticed the same thing.
