[–] FlashMobOfOne@beehaw.org 5 points 2 years ago (1 child) I dunno. I'm kind of enjoying watching Firefox users have to eat a little crow, since they troll the shit out of me every time I talk about Brave. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] LukeZaz@beehaw.org 15 points 2 years ago This really doesn’t make Brave look any better though, seeing as it has its own version of “privacy-focused” attention-monetization schemes (Basic Attention Tokens) and its own fair share of controversies. Not to mention being Chromium under the hood and being developed by a company headed by Brandon Eich of all people — a massive homophobe. None of which make Firefox impeccable or ever did. But all of which made Brave decidedly worse to me, including after this all happened. permalink fedilink source parent
