Personal computing - Ubuntu laptop (most things), iPhone, and a W11 Pro gaming PC,
* Browsers: hardened Firefox with containers and Ublock Origin for most things, Brave for anything that refuses to work in FF. On the phone I alternate between Brave and Safari. Brave is really good for watching YouTube on iOS.
* Search engines: Qwant, DuckDuckGo and Brave search, in that order
Work computing - a W11 Enterprise laptop provided by my employer
* Browsers: We are limited to Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome. I prefer Edge because it backs up settings to my account so if I ever have to log into a different machine I don’t have to go through and harden browser settings again.
* Search engine: DuckDuckGo
* With rare exception, I have a strict separation of work vs. personal computing and no personal work is touched on this machine.
