Every now and then, I use private (or temporary) chat mode when asking something to AI.

Not because I am asking something sensitive ¹ but because it is a one-off query, and I do not want to pollute my chat history.

It may sound stupid, but …

Sometimes - most times - the default search engine DDG uses its AI to find the answer rather than just searching.

It is helpful.

Most times, I look at the answer, and done.

Yesterday, I noticed there is an edit box to ask follow up question.

When asked, it takes the user to chat interface from the search engine interface.

That is when I realized that all such chats are private.

No need for the extra step to start a private chat.

One thing led to another, and now I have native macOS app for the Duck Duck Go browser.

I had used it in past (years ago?) but it got dropped to the sideways.

So another try now.

It looks better after a big gap.
