    The browser isnt paid though.

    So it’s a closed source browser that relies on donations? Or is it Open Source? I could not find much about it (eg. a git repo or something) and just assumed it would have a similar business model to the search engine.

    why would it have issues with a package manager?

    Depends on the package manager. It’s probably easy on Debian, but more difficult on rolling releases, mostly because of dependency hell. Binary distributed software is also harder to integrate in a build system and cross-compilation to a different architecture is not possible.

    Regarding the cost of the search engine, I don’t care about all the things you get. I just want a search engine and for a reasonable price compared to the price of their “all of them at once, I suppose” bundle.
