Why I recommend against Brave.
Why I recommend against Brave.
If you are keen on personal privacy, you might have come across Brave Browser. Brave is a Chromium-based browser that promises to deliver privacy with built-in ad-blocking and content-blocking protection. It also offers several quality-of-life features and services, like a VPN and Tor access. I mean, it's even listed on the reputable PrivacyTools website. Why am I telling you to steer clear of this browser, then?
You're viewing a single thread.
The CEO of brave is a homophobic bigot if that helps push anyone over the edge for changing their browser. It was the last straw for me.
This post shows that it’s much worse than that.
That pretty much does it, yes. Staying away from brave.
Edit: that Netscape team, holy fuck, Andreesen also came from that cesspool, what a fucking drudge of parasites.
You do know that Firefox is essentially Netscape rebooted, right?
Also I don't really know what you are trying to say here. Netscape was definitely a better option than Internet Explorer.
I didn't know that, thanks for the tip : https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brendan_Eich
That was the headliner reason for me.
The rest was just 'Alright, it isn't enough this guy is a piece of shit, he's pushing a shitty product.'
That's not even his worst crime. His worst crime was inventing JavaScript.
Especially when the alternative they were considering was having Scheme in the browser.
Probably also has some right wing bias as well. That's probably one of the reasons they included goggles in Brave search for right wing content.
