Exactly the opposite happened with me, a few months ago. Brave posts were getting so much mindless hate, and every argument involved shifting goalposts or people just running away when asked specific factual questions in response to their vague FUDding. I was a long term Firefox user who was looking for an additional browser to check out and partially switch to, and this astounding amount of vitriol made me want to check out Brave and see what had these people all riled up. (And I believe the answer is crypto - any association with it at all. There was a long period when crypto threads were just complete hatefests - yes, even more than today - and I think it's the Moxie web3 article, despite being generally against crypto, shifted the general tone of these to have some actual thoughtful comments. And the Brave thread here seems to have experienced the exact same change compared to before.)
