It's gone on sale many times. You can see on dekudeals.com. I haven't actually played 3 but I played 2 without having played the first one and it was very enjoyable.

The photos are intentionally dull. It's just a product of comparing cameras in a controlled environment.

You can go to product pages for the iPhone 14 Pro or Galaxy S22 and see photos with a bit more soul... though still with a forced feeling that comes from marketing.

You can look at professional photos taken with phone cameras circa 2015 and they still look good.

Documentary cited is from 2007 so that's a marked improvement for 2-3 years...

I'd personally lean towards trusting published medical journal.

Does this offer anything unique that other content blockers cannot? From what I can see it would only be the forced encryption and I guess the letter grade.

I love DDG for search but not sure this browser competes with 1Blocker X Safari integration on iOS.

It's not a content blocker. It does have a lot of "instant answers" with information put in a box next to search results so you don't even have to click through. e.g. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=who+is+the+prime+minister+of+malay...

Also it has "bangs" which give you shortcuts to lots of other services. https://duckduckgo.com/bang

Guess I worded it a bit strangely but this acts like a content blocker on iOS, but in it's own browser. Most commenters are just commenting on the search engine but this post is about their mobile browser.

I was just curious what benefits you get from switching to this browser vs. using a content blocker with Safari.
