      Whenever I see a Brave shill on YouTube, I take their advice on most matters with atleast a sack of salt. And most of people’s favourite tech tubers are le lion shills, DistroTube included.

          I do not think Tim Pool is an important person. Most of these reactionary right/left wing podcasters never appealed to me. They are an example of people who invent drama and nonsense, and are all bottom of the barrel as far as intellect goes.

          If you have observed web browser related threads on 4chan /g/ in the past 4-5 years, you would have observed this meme. One of the rare memes they made that is not offensive, that I love using.

      Braves default fingerprinting protection is better than the one that librewolf uses, or at least it is according to the EFF.

      I use it. I don’t get marketing because I use brave, which has a fucking indestructible adblocker. Like while everyone was panicking from the YouTube issues, I’ve never seen a single message to turn it off on YouTube. And there was a bunch of other things that users has reported, like slow videos, that brave just didn’t have problems with.

      Brave is simply usable Chromium. On GrapheneOS it is not the most secure as it has its own Chromium engine which is not as hardened poorly.

      On Linux it works well with hardened_malloc while Firefox straight up does not run. This is probably because Firefox has memory issues.

      It sucks relying on Chromium as Firefoxes UX is top tier. I have no idea why normies are using Chromium Browsers, they all suck for UX, especially Chrome.

      But on Android and Linux Chromium is very secure, while Firefox is at least questionable.

      Brave sets very weird priorities though, they dont focus on many features people need and instead bloat everything with news or crypto stuff that doesnt even support Monero.
