Didn’t know where to post this, so hopefully this is the right spot. Please boycott Brave. I’ve recently learned that not only is their CEO bad, but their fanbase is toxic, too. I will no longer be using Brave for that reason.

    JS is by far the worst language I have ever used besides PHP, and yes, I tend to avoid JS a lot given how Much it is used for tracking (though disabling it entirely breaks most webaites.).

    Also, as said in the other comment, using JS doesn’t give Brendan Eich any money so I’m not concerned about that.

      I’d argue that while PHP may be worse on a technical level, JS is a worse overall ecosystem because if you develop for the web, you’re forced to use it.

          Celebrity power leads to purchasing of products associated with that celebrity.

            Brendan Eich is by no mean a celebrity for having invented JS. I had never heard of him before Brave.

              Didn’t realise the world revolved around you and that you decide who is a celebrity lol

                  Thanks for contributing to the discussion with something valuable. Does trying to insult someone because you have nothing valuable to say make you feel like a better human? Curious what you got out of your comment… it just makes me think you’re a tool.

                  It’s OK if you don’t understand marketing theory and have a myopic view of the world. Please be more verbose lmaaaaoooo
