And crypto are disabled by default.
No, I wont' ditch it. It's the best browser out there, right now, since scummy/corrupt/hypocrite Mozilla (which, remember, is in bed with Google, Amazon and Facebook while criticizing them) decided that Firefox is just a side project for them and they're deceiving people making them believe that donations fund FF development.
Don't even bother to reply. I won't give this shitty thread more fuel.
No one told you to ditch it. But can you fanboii a little less aggressively, please?
Have you ever interacted with a Brave user? No, they can't.
I swear they all have some sort of brain slug that makes them cultish and just generally unlikeable
If you look at what a raging tool the CEO is and the implications of the browser's association with crypto (no matter how optional), I think that Brave just attracts that type of person
Makes sense given that the Brave CEO is a member of an actual cult.
Which one is that?
the mormon church. it’s the reason he donates money to anti-lgbt causes.
Thought for sure the answer was going to be the Cult of Crypto
I actually didn't know that when I opened this thread!!!
