So they can do a lot more with the smaller index since it is usually popular pages. On the flip side Brave focuses on the most popular pages on the internet. As a result Brave's index is a fraction of the size of DDG's. So brave indexes based off of user browsing if I understand tailcat's process correctly. Brave is not one of them (think google and Microsoft). The big quality difference is there are very few companies with enough compute power to actually index the entire internet.

The big difference is DDG uses Bing results mostly and Brave uses its own index.
