Privacy-focused browsers
隐私导向的浏览器
Brave Brave is among the more well-known privacy-first browsers, popular for its built-in ad and tracker blocking capabilities. It also has a gamified approach to browsing, rewarding users with its own cryptocurrency called Basic Attention Token (BAT). When users choose to opt in to view ads, supporting their favorite websites, they get a share of the ad revenue. Additional features include a VPN service, an AI assistant, and a video calling feature.
Brave Brave 是较为知名的隐私优先浏览器之一，因其内置的广告和追踪器拦截功能而广受欢迎。它还采用了一种游戏化的浏览方式，通过其名为“基础注意力代币”（BAT）的加密货币奖励用户。当用户选择加入观看广告以支持他们喜爱的网站时，他们可以获得一部分广告收入分成。其他功能还包括 VPN 服务、AI 助手和视频通话功能。
DuckDuckGo DuckDuckGo is another browser that many people are probably already familiar with, thanks to its search engine by the same name. Launched in 2008, the company recently made significant investments in its browser to stay competitive by introducing generative AI features, such as a chatbot. It also enhanced its scam blocker to detect a wider range of scams, including fake cryptocurrency exchanges, scareware tactics, and fraudulent e-commerce websites. In addition to blocking scams, DuckDuckGo prevents trackers and ads, and it doesn’t track user data, resulting in fewer pop-ups for users.

Ladybird Ladybird, led by GitHub co-founder and former CEO Chris Wanstrath, has an ambitious mission compared to other rivals: It aims to build an entirely new open source browser from scratch. This means it will not rely on code from existing browsers, a feat that has rarely been accomplished. Most alternative web browsers depend on the Chromium open source project maintained by Google, which is the most widely used base for many browsers. Like other privacy-focused browsers, Ladybird will offer features to minimize data collection, such as a built-in ad blocker and the ability to block third-party cookies. The browser has yet to be launched, with an alpha version scheduled for release in 2026 for early adopters, available on Linux and macOS.
Ladybird 由 GitHub 联合创始人兼前 CEO Chris Wanstrath 领导的 Ladybird，其使命比其他竞争对手更为宏大：它旨在从零开始构建一个全新的开源浏览器。这意味着它不会依赖现有浏览器的代码，这是一项极少有人能完成的壮举。大多数替代网页浏览器都依赖于 Google 维护的 Chromium 开源项目，这是许多浏览器最广泛使用的基础。与其他隐私导向的浏览器一样，Ladybird 将提供旨在最大限度减少数据收集的功能，例如内置广告拦截器和拦截第三方 Cookie 的能力。该浏览器尚未发布，预计将于 2026 年面向早期采用者发布 Alpha 版本，支持 Linux 和 macOS。
