It’s a huge shame with all this Chrome adblock stuff that masses are recommending Brave. Stop it you fools, if Brave get bigger they will be infinitely worse than Google.

in reply to Liam • • •So use Vivaldi instead?!
Someone tell me this is a joke; It’s not even open-source!
The browser space is a fire pit at the moment, no denying it, but Vivaldi?!
Damn, this is some next level anti-brave advertisement, and I don’t even use brave OR vivaldi atm 😂

Може із-за того мені сподобалось, що я якраз і обрав Vivaldi своїм браузером, і користуюсь ним і зараз.

in reply to Liam • • •That's a really shitty thing to tell your followers to be honest. I use Brave. I support gay and trans rights.
Are you seriously suggesting that I must agree with every political stance a software developer has if I use their software?
If you are, I think you are stupid. However I don't think you really believe that, just that you haven't taken the time to think it through.
Let's all take a deep breath and be a little smarter, okay?

To contradict the reason why, but to agree that you shouldn't use Brave:
America's little civil cold war is close enough to hot that it's not unlikely at all for an alt-right developer to update their program to contain some kind of backdoor or keylogger. The information gathered by it would be used for advantage, political or perhaps even "tactical" in some way.
Unfortunately this means it's too close to the election for me to play Factorio 😔
At a time like this, do not install any program with an autoupdater unless you would give its developers root on your computer and feel fine with that.

Unknown parent • •@Rosco @Liam I like Qutebrowser, but I've more recently switched to LibreWolf. There were too many pages that weren't working properly under Qute. Sometimes pragmatism wins out a little over idealism for me, but who knows, a month from now, I may switch back because I'm fickle like that.

in reply to Liam • • •don’t recommend Zen either. Its developer is just as messed up as all the other ones. If not worse.
Arrogance never builds anything good. 
Servo and ladybird are at best 5+ years out.
But funding either of them that you prefer is a good choice for the future even if it’s only a dollar.

in reply to Liam • • •I stopped using Brave Browser a while ago now. It was too much of a memory hog. Also, I became disillusioned with some of its promises.
I switched to Firefox. It is not perfect but it is better.
I'm temped to give Opera a try.

I invite anyone to try Icecat with HTML reveal and LibRedirect so they
