-> │ I avoid it like the plague for a few different reasons:
-> │
-> │ 1. It's a Chromium fork, thus polluting the browser market with false choice
-> │ 2. It's inextricably linked to cryptocurrency (specifically BAT)
-> │ 3. It's run by outspoken anti-LGBTQIA+ activist Brendan Eich
-> │
-> │ I currently use Floorp (a Firefox fork) with µBlock Origin.
I can agree with part 1, Brave should have used the firefox engine or
the engine from Safari instead. Browser makers don't want to do it the
hard way.
