I use 5 different browsers including brave, each have their strengths.

All the technical points mentioned there are not really relevant to me, because I turned off that other stuff.

Would I trust it with my really sensitive data? No. Do I have respect for the people behind the browser? Some of them are ok, some not. Honestly, using American tech it’s hard to swing a cat around in a room and not hit a nazi

But when it’s better than the Firefox forks or Chrome, I see no reason not to use it for those use cases. It does its job well.
