- freedom42 6y agoBecause the direction Chromium is heading is in large part controlled by Google, more than Firefox. Also Chromium still has Google bits, otherwise ungoogled-chromium won't exist right?
- ravenstine 6y agoI see. I generally agree with that, which is one reason why I'm a Firefox user, but I'm not totally sure I buy it as a reason not to use Brave. It's a fair viewpoint, though. I could see it being a reason for being against Brave if the Google-ness of Chromium is able to make Brave less private.
- freedom42 6y agoI think Google recently took out the syncing capability from Chromium. Things like that. Edit: Also the manifest v3 thingy which made Ublock Origin operation restricted, also I think it prevented CNAME uncloaking. Idk whether Google went ahead with manifest v3 though.
- encryptluks2 6y agoNothing. I use Chromium. I just prefer it over Brave.
- asddubs 6y agoI think the main problem is that by using it you're still giving google decision-making power over the future of the web
