I will consider Brave when they cut ties with Chromium (i.e. Google).
- em-bee 3y agoi don't see how brave search has much, if anything, to do with the brave browser (other than them being the same organization, and presumably the brave browser using brave search) i don't want a chromium based browser either so i use firefox, but that doesn't stop me from using brave search. brave basing their browser on firefox or some other alternative is something i'd love to see, but i see it as extremely unlikely to ever happen, even though it's quite ironic given that brendan eich is the CEO of brave.
- NayamAmarshe 3y agoThey started with a Firefox base but realized the shortcomings very soon. Then they tried electron but it too was not great. Then they switched to chromium and the rest is history.
- em-bee 3y agoi was not aware of that, thank you. that is a lot more in line with what i would have expected to happen, and it is quite unfortunate that firefox is so difficult to reuse as a base for other projects.
- DANmode 3y agoChromium is not 100% Google's forever and always, though they do currently lead the way, and with the most used/backed fork. https://github.com/brave/brave-core/pull/19476 https://github.com/brave/brave-core/pull/19476
