Chrome, Safari, Edge, and Mozilla have the advantage of many eyes on them. I may not trust them but they are known unknowns. Brave is niche and very much an unknown unknown to me. They are innovative, moving quickly, and don’t appear too concerned with their reputation (you could make the same case for Mozilla). Their “mistakes” look pretty bad to me and I don’t want the additional cognitive overhead of worrying about my browser.
- rglullis 4y agoBrave is far from "niche". Brave browser has 50 million MAU, and growing almost 100% per year. Firefox is ~200M MAU and declining.
- skinnymuch 4y agoDoesn’t Brave not give a unique user agent any more? There’s no way to know for sure
- rglullis 4y agoThey don't have it fingerprinted for sites. They still have anonymized telemetry.
