  • Always look in the README.md file first for instructions for downloading and installing.

    Prerequisites

    Bridge requires a full Firefox build environment:

    • Linux: GCC/Clang 13+, Python 3.8+, Node.js 16+, Rust 1.70+
    • Windows: Visual Studio 2022, Python 3.8+, Node.js 16+, Rust 1.70+
    • macOS: Xcode 14+, Python 3.8+, Node.js 16+, Rust 1.70+

    So there is no Android version.

    If you do want to install for one of OSes mentioned, the next section gives instructions on how to build by source. This means you have to follow in instructions. This might mean it is too technical for users not used to CLI (command line interface).

    Creating search prompts itself is a skill. You wouldn’t think so until trying to teach some one logic through search prompts. It is hell, literally my hell. Some people just don’t get it like 0 percent.

    Differentiating what is a good source and what is a bad source is an even harder skill. People will believe what they want to believe. Google search adapts to the bias of individuals because it keeps people searching. This is why, even though it isn’t perfect, engines like duckduckgo are important.
