Brave was good until they really started pushing their ad/cryptocurrency stuff. It's still okay in technical terms (they subvert a lot of telemetry, have good performance), but it just FEELS icky now.

- majewsky 6y agoIf there is a feature that you can opt of out, but which they rely on for funding, how can you be sure that the opt-out will stick around?
- craftinator 6y agoFair enough. I still use brave, I think my personal bias just makes me want to run from anything that uses the word "crypto" in a context outside of cryptographic security.
