I like to use Brave for my browser. Their built-in adblocker is top notch.
I also will vouch for Proton - I use their entire system for mail, VPN, etc. Very affordable plans. Swiss-level security. The only thing I haven’t used is their Lumo AI.
I’m still on the Luddite side when it comes to AI stuff. (I’ll probably be forced out of my hut at some point though, since they’re shoving it onto everyone. I love having things forced into my life without my consent! /s
Oh it’s definitely new! They weren’t there a few weeks ago before I left for my little hiatus, but they were there when I returned. So it must’ve been somewhere in that timeline. They’re cute lol
