    I’m going to paste a reply I got in regards to Brave and why you should change to a different browser

    just let people do whatever they want, wtf is wrong with you people

    It’s still better than using Google / Edge, and it’s basically the only good chromium alternative to the aforementioned browsers - reminder that stock chromium is not good.

    Beside, you forgot the most important point: they further the chromium monopoly, which while the engine is open source its codebase is too big so it is basically controlled by google

    Nitpicks:

    Brave is an advertising company, that blocks everyone, but them. Forcing over people and companies into their system.

    You can disable all the ads.

    They’re heavily in the blockchain ecosystem, with their own worthless crypto.

    Depending on whom you ask, it’s a pro or a cons.

    Brave, and its CEO is right-wing, lobbying against things like same-sex marriage.

    See above.

      How are they stopping them? They’re not. But if you think that opposing equal rights for LGBT+ people is a good thing, then you’re a massive piece of shit, and we’re morally obligated to call you out for it, openly and repeatedly.

        You “suggested” a browser change + mass downvote just for using brave, lol

        if you think opposing […]

        I don’t, but I don’t see how using a free browser, more so disabling the ads, you support that person or the idea

        Like, I could see a point if you paid anything for it (see: Rowling) but for brave you pay nothing so
