Look at the product not the creator. Oh wait the product is also ass

Braves adblock is the only technology I know of that gets through the EFF fingerprinting test while still providing a usable experience.

Not worth all the ads and crypto shenanigans though

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 months ago

To be fair tests will always be biased. Also both Librewolf and Mull pass for me.

Brave is my backup for Firefox. I simply never signed up for bat and removed the icon from the bar.

I'm sure they're collecting and will sell my information to anybody that will pay, But that information will be less reaching than Microsoft or Google, their fingerprinting against other sites is very good so it's probably limiting my exposure more Even though they're also a broker. How I keep them around for the ad blocking alone, they actually have a team of paid developers to keep YouTube and browser ads at bay, they're also doing the ad blocking in the core application instead of the plugins so it's not something that can be easily bypassed.

Every single post about ad blockers will be someone talking about how "good" Brave is. Drives me crazy.

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago

It is fairly popular these days which gives me hope. The fact that people are willing to give up Chrome is a very good sign.

Honestly the custom Firefox browsers are the best option but they are less well known and harder to use and understand. The great part about Brave is that it just works.

🎶*Say what you wanna say

And let the words fall out

Honestly, I wanna see you be racist*🎶

This reminds me of the song by Johnathan Coulton, "Brave".

A part of the chorus:

When I torch the place And cover up my face That will make me brave

Iron Maiden - Racist new world

[-] Senseless@feddit.org 15 points 2 months ago

Sadly it's not even that far off the truth. Looking at Europe where more and more countries lean to the right. And the best idea democratic parties have is to copy right wing talking points in order to win back voters.. which obviously doesn't work.

[-] yesman@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I've always wanted to love Iron Maiden, but I just can't. It's the lyrical delivery, like Dickinson invented the opposite of "flow".

Obviously the band is GOAT when it comes to T-shirts.

FDNY: New York's racistest.

To be fair, they go into a burning building and come out in blackface

[-] RogueBanana@lemmy.zip 21 points 2 months ago

Is this about trump followers or did brave the browser do something? Since it's on Linux memes, I am guessing it's the later.

[-] 30p87@feddit.org 39 points 2 months ago

There were some scandals about the CEO being homophobe and anti-Covid.

[-] qaz@lemmy.world 63 points 2 months ago

I'd be more worried of they were pro-Covid

[-] s_s@lemm.ee 5 points 2 months ago

Its worse. He's a Mormon.

Yes, Hail Xi! /s

[-] Phen@lemmy.eco.br 2 points 2 months ago

I remember a time back when I still used twitter, thinking: "oh guess I'll follow that dude who created Javascript" then shortly after wondering: "why is there so much stupid shit showing up on my timeline lately?".

[-] dumbass@leminal.space 16 points 2 months ago

The Racist Little Toaster.

[-] kholby@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Don't you dare! Toaster loves all people, especially the Master... oh I see it now.

Classic Pixar movie but the 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 flags are red

It’s a joke that they changed the name of the browser to match what the person said about right wingers standing up
