@V1h5a Hi! No invite code necessary since opening beta up to the public earlier this week. Did you download the latest version? — PolitiTweet.org

@mardabx DuckDuckGo for Mac is not a “fork” of Chromium, or any other browser code. All the app code – tab and bookmark management, our password manager, etc. – is written by our own engineers. For rendering, it uses a public macOS API, making it super compatible with Mac devices. — PolitiTweet.org

@xarbit Hi Jason! We've got good news for you 🙂 We've teamed up with Bitwarden, in the first of what we hope to be several similar integrations. In the coming weeks, Bitwarden users will be able to activate a seamless two-way integration in their browser settings. — PolitiTweet.org

@sxvs Yep! Any ads you see within Duck Player will not be personalized. YouTube still registers your views, so it’s not totally anonymous, but none of the videos you watch in Duck Player contribute to your YouTube advertising profile or suggest distracting personalized recommendations. — PolitiTweet.org

DuckDuckGo @DuckDuckGo

@sxvs Thanks for reaching out. Duck Player protects you from targeted ads and cookies with a distraction-free interface that incorporates YouTube’s strictest privacy settings for embedded video. Where did you see the ad -- was it in the embedded video or elsewhere? — PolitiTweet.org

DuckDuckGo @DuckDuckGo

@boycott_seattle Our browser comes built in with our best-in-class Tracker Blocking, which does block many ads (the ones that are creepiest, because they track you across domains). We do eventually want to support extensions, which would allow users to install ad blockers from other providers. — PolitiTweet.org

@LeafyLuigi We plan to open source it once we're through the beta period, like we've done for our mobile apps, and many of our built-in privacy protections are already open sourced. (2/2) — PolitiTweet.org

DuckDuckGo @DuckDuckGo

@LeafyLuigi We use the rendering engine that comes with macOS. Technically, we don’t have to “fork” any code to do this – we just call an API provided by macOS. Everything else is built from scratch. (1/2) — PolitiTweet.org

@finitecrystal We're doing more to prevent Microsoft tracking than most major browsers by default. This blog post explains those web tracking protections (which are included in DuckDuckGo for Mac) in detail: https://t.co/u2AgFkCStr — PolitiTweet.org

🧑‍💻 We built DuckDuckGo for Mac with privacy, security, and simplicity in mind. Our default privacy settings are stronger than what most other browsers offer, and you don’t need to sift through obscure menus to turn them on. Download ➡️ https://t.co/8x9u2487q2 — PolitiTweet.org

🔸 Our browser includes our own secure and easy-to-use password manager. But we understand some folks want to continue using third-party password management across browsers and devices. So, we’ve teamed up with @Bitwarden, the accessible open-source password manager. https://t.co/67cUOMcQCm — PolitiTweet.org

🔸 DuckDuckGo for Mac has always blocked invasive trackers before they load, effectively eliminating ads that rely on creepy tracking. Now we’re cleaning up whitespaces left behind by those ads for an efficient, distraction-free look without the need for a separate ad blocker. — PolitiTweet.org

Let's dive in to some of the features, many of which were based on your feedback (thank you!): 🔸 Want to watch YouTube videos in peace? We've got you covered. Our new Duck Player protects you from targeted ads and cookies with a distraction-free interface. https://t.co/uSFwahpN3G — PolitiTweet.org

DuckDuckGo for Mac beta is now available to download: https://t.co/8x9u2487q2 🎉 Going “incognito” with other browsers doesn’t deliver substantive web tracking protection; you deserve privacy all the time, with built-in protections that make the Internet less creepy. 💁 — PolitiTweet.org
