From many of the comments it seems the community doesn't like Brendan Eich and crypto, and maybe even practises a cancel culture. Because the CEO's beliefs about gay marriage or showing few crypto links don't make Brave a better or worse software.

Capitalism is a scheme where finite raw materials are being extracted and where finite nature is being destroyed - both on the planetary scale; once we reach the end, it will be the end.

You don't need a 65" OLED TV because you know it's bad for the environment.

I meant liberalism as progressivism and leftism, not economic liberalism nor libertarianism. What I mind is that herd behaviour of many fellows who downvote stuff even if it's a plausible idea, and vice versa.

I totally agree. We can have whatever political direction that we choose, nevertheless in practice it seems the majority of Lemmy is liberal & progressive & leftist. There is obviously nothing wrong with that. What is wrong is downvoting & upvoting along these political lines and disregarding how well is each idea formulated. It does happen too often in my opinion.

Liberal views are like progressive and leftist.

Well, that's the worst case scenario. I hope that Brave will fork Chromium and leave the WEI out. Brave prides itself on being the no nonsense browser ...
