Comment on Brave CEO rants about "lefties," "glowies," George Soros

Regardless of the CEO, Brave is a great product. The crypto stuff is easy to turn off. Fantastic ad blocking, rarely any problems. What is the best alternative with great ad blocking?

I don’t know what that has to do with my question? I am not defending anything like that

I see how they didn’t answer the question. However, maybe he’s not answering your question but commenting on “Brave is a great product”.

That doesn’t make it a bad product. I’ve never interacted with any of the crypto or donation stuff. You go into settings, click “no thanks” and are never bothered by any of that ever again. So no, these stories people repeat ad nauseam don’t take away anything from the product. Why don’t other people demand better from the alternatives? If there is one better than Brave at fighting popups and stuff, I’m all for it

I used it as a secondary browser for a while. I didn’t particularly care for it. It’s a shame Edge is spyware corporate garbage because that’s probably the best Chromium browser besides Ungoogled Chromium. I use Librewolf and the CachyOS browser now.

Literally every other browser with uBlock Origin? I am still able to use it even on Chrome.
