I was wondering why my laptop heats up too much lately

  All the shitty chromium forks have the option (usually defaulted on) to remain running in the background even when closed. I honestly don’t know why, other than advertising mining bitcoins…

    Because by remaining active in the background, they’ll open faster next time you’re opening them.

  Don’t use Brave. It’s basically malware at this point, run by a really scummy company.

    Stop spreading FUD please.

    For some reason people love to shit on Brave and turn a blind eye to mistakes made by Mozilla or problems with Firefox. Brave has had missteps in the past, as many projects have. This doesn’t make it “malware.”

    It’s ok not to use it for ideological reasons - I don’t like their CEO either. But that doesn’t mean Brave is not a privacy browser or not a good browser.

  Definitely a bug or a site is very much doing something

  Is that how many tabs you have open?

    Brave: 4 tabs, 5 extensions

    Firefox: 6 tabs, 15 extensions
