Comment on Why I recommend against Brave.

Check the comment section for the video version of this article by Niccolò, or the comment section of the post on r/browsers, or the replies whenever these issues are mentioned on Twitter, and so on, and you’ll find a bunch of brave people saying stuff like:
you unintentionally just made me like brave over firefox. now i can switch to a chromium based browser and not even feel bad about it
Yes i am installing Brave after this advertisment!
Thanks to this video I deleted Brave then redownloaded it
These were taken directly from the video. Throw in also some “stop inserting politics (that I don’t like) into tech” comments, and a few homophobes not even trying to hide it.
I don’t think every Brave user is a cunt, but fucking hell, are cunts seemingly attracted to Brave.
To folks bothered by this: know that the lead developer of Ladybird is also a big fan of Brendan Eich.
