- sammy2255 2y agoDisagree. Regardless of what Brave is doing you shouldn’t block via User Agent like this.
- gs17 2y agoEspecially not simply making the site not load like that. If you really think a browser is so bad you don't want people using it, at least have it redirect to a message explaining what your grievance is. Unless the browser is DDoSing webpages it loads successfully, making the site look broken is pretty worthless as a response. EDIT: Although, it looks like they tried to do that sometimes? No idea why they would switch from that approach.
- hitekker 2y agoEh, pushcx's is right to disagree with past bad decision Brave made, but I think he's conflating a few grievances together. Someone tried to reason with him on that front: https://lobste.rs/s/iopw1d/what_s_up_with_lobste_rs_blocking_brave#c_ezne5h https://lobste.rs/s/iopw1d/what_s_up_with_lobste_rs_blocking... I sense hidden ideology, but it's his community to own, not mine.
- coffeeling 2y agoIt's not just that he disagrees with the things on an object, what happened level. He actively reads malice into every misstep to paint the organization as abusive.
- porridgeraisin 2y agoYep.
