I dual booted and I rarely ever used windows when i was starting, mostly because windows takes a while to reboot.
It's way more attractive imo then floorp. Development is continuously happening and features that have been wanted have been implemented within weeks of them being first suggested. The interface is beautiful and customisable, a contrast from floorps, which was useable but not beautiful or customisable, outside of the few options they provided.
I've been using Brave Search supplemented by Startpage for the past 2+ years. When I search for something, I want to get results for credible webpages, not a summary of unknown quality. I liked the previous AI inclusion because it was instant, didn't take up much space, and I could quickly navigate to the websites referenced in it, but with the new feature it takes up more space, is slower, and not really what I want out of a search engine.
As soon as the feature was rolled out I disabled it in settings, but the AI button stays visible, I get autocomplete specifically for Answer with AI and I get frequent notifications to try out the new AI feature. An opt-out toggle should not mean that I still am pestered to use the feature I opted out of.
This is really annoying, and I'm probably going to end up switching to Startpage or SearXNG or something.
