  I tested it out and it works well for things like building heights, actors in movies, common facts, etc.

  In my experience, the only area Brave Search lacks in is local results (a common issue with all non-Google search engines), but outside of that, I prefer it to Google, Bing, and DDG (still trying out Kagi)

  I asked Brave today how to merge many VCF contact card files into a single file on macOS, and it gave me a simple command to do it. The best part is it gives you context so you can visit sources to get into more details.

  I have been using this today for some one off prompts that I would normally use ChatGPT for and it has nailed every single one.
