DuckDuckGo is building a privacy-focused browser for the MacWhat you need to know
DuckDuckGo is building a privacy-focused browser for macOS and Windows.
The company says it is building the browser on "OS-provided rendering engines" rather than Chromium.
Can Apple just buy this company already?
DuckDuckGo is about to come to the Mac with a new desktop app.
In a blog post from DuckDuckGo CEO Gabriel Weinberg, the company has announced that it is now taking what it learned from its iOS and Android app and building a full-fledged desktop app for the Mac and Windows.
According to Weinberg, instead of building the app on the Chromium platform (like Microsoft did with Edge), it is using the "OS-provided rendering engines (like on mobile), allowing us to strip away a lot of the unnecessary cruft and clutter that's accumulated over the years in major browsers."
Like we've done on mobile, DuckDuckGo for desktop will redefine user expectations of everyday online privacy. No complicated settings, no misleading warnings, no "levels" of privacy...
