Brave is still dependent on Google even more than Firefox, I agree that Mozilla must seeks multiple sources of revenue but if it was easy maintaining your own engine Brave would do it.
- NayamAmarshe 4y agoLet's take 2 hypothetical scenarios. 1. Chromium stops being FOSS. Brave, Vivaldi, Edge continue to exist. The only difference being, Brave is now a fork that exists independently and has to do security patches on its own. 2. Google stops funding Mozilla. With 90% of the revenue gone, Mozilla as we know it would cease to exist as a corporation. So no, Brave's dependence on Google is not a life and death situation for the whole company.
