I think we should add a label to each piece of software, to prevent people who don't see much difference from choosing the first option (why would they choose the second or the third one?)

We'd use Bootstrap labels.
I'll create a PR once we decide enough labels
2 kinds of labels
1. Labels, like "easy to use"
2. Short notes, like "routes everything through the Tor network by default"
Feedback is needed on labels written like this

Section	1	2	3
Browser Recommendation	Firefox: popular	Brave: natively blocks ads	Tor Browser: routes everything through the Tor network by default

Other (not the main 3):

TorBirdy: beta or experimental

Good idea! But when using Labels then they should be short in my opinion and not a description since there is already a description for each tool right? E.g. for your Tor Browser label we could just say "Uses Tor Network".

I meant labels and short notes as a separate thing, but had issues describing it, let me edit the post :P. Some tools might need a short description more than a tiny label.

Tool name
Note: short note
<audited> <easy to use>
long description

Would there be a limit on the amount of labels?

I think the limit would be "doesn't look bad"

You could have, say, two longer labels as well as, say, five very short ones.

@Shifterovich I think some hard limit to fallback to might be appropriate, "doesn't look bad" is very subjective 😛 I know people are going to want to put more information into this than they can beautifully handle

I think labels should not span more than one "line" when the site is at its full width. This might be a limit as well...

All PRs are reviewed by us. But you're right, we should define some limit. I'd go with three small labels and (or) one larger label/note.

Great idea, though I'm not sure where we'd place them exactly.

I don't think the labels were added or at least https://www.privacytools.io/browsers/#browser which seems to be mockupped is missing those.

Also why is Tor Browser only for experts?

I wouldn't know, and i think that one should be removed anyway, as it could scare away people who might really need it.
