I’ve been seeing a lot of people hate and uninstall Brave. Why? It’s not like they’re tracking us or doing anything else shady. If so, what’s the privacy alternative?

    Crypto isn’t mandatory in brave, I use it for it’s built-in ad block and they say they won’t implement Google’s DRM, also blockchain based since is nice

      I’m aware, but it’s still supported, and that’s enough for me to vomit over a garbage product.

      They say they won’t implement Google’s DRM but words alone do not matter. If they continue to use Chromium, they’ll be forced to adopt that and manifest v3.

        They would have to put more work into their fork, but they aren’t forced.
