Gentle reminder that Brave's CEO is a known bigot and the browser is just chrome with a few extensions and fresh coat of paint.

I really don't understand why people use and recommend brave. They've have had plenty of shady practices in the past and bundle crypto crap by default. If you want to block ads just install ublock origin on (preferably) any privacy respecting browser like firefox (or better yet librewolf), ungoogled-chromium etc
Brave sucks. Firefox + uBlock Origin is superior.
Yes I'm a Firefox Supremacist.
I really doubt that is marketing. I just think that’s an over-enthusiastic user.
Idk, sound like a paid comment to me.
You're paranoid, mate
You're insane.
Aren't we all?
I shill brave on iOS regularly as a way to get past ads on mobile and watch with background playback. But that’s more because of how much I hate ads than any loyalty to brave. I highly doubt they’re paying for the kind of low quality shilling this guy is doing on Amazon. If they are, they can start paying me as well!
if you're interested in alternatives with adblockers:
- adguard extension for safari, for general browsing
- video lite app for youtube, or any other video playing website. It's a browser disguised as video player, but it's really well done, feels like I'm using the oficial youtube app
Perhaps you sound like a FireFox or otherwise Anti-Brave shill
Wow wow, slow down dude, now you sound like a Brave shill yourself.
It’s brave shills all the way down
