I have been very happy with DuckDuckGo, and it has helped me break free of routines that I did not feel safe with. Especially the small flame icon that would clear all history, cookies and cache from websites that are not “fireproofed” was great!
But today I had to do a quick example on Tinkercad (3D browser design tool) and it was so slow! I thought that my PC maybe was busy doing something (yeah its an older PC but not THAT old), but when I open the same page on my now parked Opera browser, everything went smoothly.
I am ok with using Opera, or any other browser for 3D work, as I don’t really do all that much of it, but I just feel gutted to find out that my now favorite browser sucks so bad at something, not to mention the Microsoft Edge processes when that is the last of any browser that I would choose to use
EDIT: I found out that this was due to hardware acceleration was off, on my DuckDuckGo browser. I had turned it off, because the fonts on websites looked blurry when it was on. The solution was to turn off antialising on the Nvidia control panel, and restart the PC. It is now working well!

If your on windows consider installing though scoop.sh
On linux just use Flatpak
Scoop and Chocolatey are the only ways to make Windows usable. But Flatpak on Linux will always be the easiest and beat solution, because Linux is simply the best OS.
why not winget?
Winget isn’t really a package manager
it can install packages and manage their dependencies. (package dependencies are experimental tho) (so what part of it is “not really a package manager”
YES
HELL YEAH
FUCK CHROMIUM, GOOGLE AND ALL OF BIG TECH
