It’s good for playing youtube without ads and Netflix which doesnt work with my firefox setup for some reason. That’s all I use it for.

anyone believing brave is good for privacy is quite naive

Ublock Origin on Firefox can also play YT without ads…
Netflix Idk

you should be able to play all the netflix content you need on pretty much any system. here’s a community for troubleshooting that. lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/piracy

I’ve still not forgiven them for prematurely cancelling BoJack Horseman.

Yea, I dont really have problems with YT in Firefox. Just use brave because it’s on my “watching stuff” monitor. Brave did seem to work better during that period where they were being more aggressive about ad blockers but I haven’t seen that for a while.

Weird, youtube with ublock origin is all I need to enjoy no ads. Are you using some additional scripts that modify youtube in some way?

Bar better than chrome, edge or Firefox without modification

Why is everyone downvoting this? I haven’t used Brave as a daily driver for 3 years since I’ve been with LibreWolf, but my impression has always been the same, that it’s far better than stock Firefox, purely based on privacy (completely ignoring any ethical reasoning for not wanting to support Brave). Chrome and Edge being worse is obvious.

It’s good for privacy from the websites you visit, from itself is up for debate though lol
