      I already upgraded to Brave years ago. Thanks. And fuck Mozilla.

          Yeah, no. Too much disregard for the community and useless political crap, apart from hypocrisy on their fake anti-Google stance.

              Such an ignorant and bad faith statement I won’t even bother to reply.

                Brave is wrapped up in so much controversy it feels like you’re trolling that you called it a real browser. You’re trolling, right? Have fun with your brave sponsored ads and crypto bullshit. Also you’re still being lead by Google, but I guess that’s okay because it’s in a pretty wrapper.

                  Lol, as if Mozilla weren’t keep alive by Google’s money (which mainly come from ads, as well). Pathetic and laughable at once. Use what you prefer and stop bothering me.

                    You jumped into this conversation, friend.

                    Google does keep Mozilla alive, but it wouldn’t have to if it weren’t a monopoly. Since it does monopolize the market, it has to keep Mozilla alive or face monopoly busting action. The money Google makes comes from ads, but not the money Mozilla makes.

                    Also, unlike you, my browser isn’t directly controlled by Google’s every whim.

          If anything, they’re worse.

          1. Brave is an advertising company, that blocks everyone, but them. Forcing over people and companies into their system.
          2. They’re heavily in the blockchain ecosystem, with their own worthless crypto.
          3. They take from open source projects (uBlock, Chromium, etc), but threaten legal action when someone forks them.
          4. They install bloat/spyware on your Windows system (later claimed it was a mistake).
          5. Brave, and its CEO is right-wing, lobbying against things like same-sex marriage.

          I could go on.
