After all, why not? Why shouldn't I use it?
>>101072204You shouldn't. It has built in telemetry that can't be disabled. They also have a shady history of doing shady things with people's web traffic.

>>101076268stick to the point you faggot botthe anti fingerprinting stuff could be why it also breaks while vanilla chromium doesn't
>>101075859are you retarded or wat. The picture posted from that schizos website literally says it can be turned off.Librewolf (and firefox) are fucking dogshit compared to chromium. I run brave on flatpak and it plays 4k videos fine, but librewolf on appimage stutters.I thought it was a me issue, but every benchmark ever shows that firefox is inferior to chromium performance wise.
>braveshill thread always gets instant damage control (You)sReally maeks u think>Librewolf (and firefox) are fucking dogshit compared to chromium.citation neededname two reasons.
brave anti-fingerprinting doesnt change your timezone to utc 0 it uses your systems timezone (accurate down to the city for some) and it doesn't change/disable webgl (can accurately leak your gpu), both can be fixed with extensions its just retarded.
>>101076343I already mentioned the reason why I, and many other people won't use it.And calling every single person that has anything good to say about brave just makes you a braindead retard. Maybe people will start using your shit browser once you actually fix it.I'm not switching to a browser that can barely play 4k videos on ym computer while brave can do it just fine, and while running as a flatpak.

i use librewolf because its good on default settings with a nice ui, and doesnt look bloated like brave with all its crypto shit and whatever else. doesnt really matter tho i just use it for tutorials and entertainment, but its nice to know im not feeding into a dystopian surveillance system by feeding them my data - data which when collected by companies and stolen by hackers, can be used against me.

>>101076827>firefox doesn't have enough users leftThe answer to this question (from the article itself) is that google pays firefox to be the default front page / search.Firefox is bringing so much traffic to google that they've made $500 million.Nice own, bro.
>>101076929>firefox selling out to google is actually goodholy shit hahahahayou're a fucking retard lmao. your browser is sitting at less than 3% marketshare. Google only keeps it around to avoid a monopoly lawsuit.

i use brave because it does a good job of blocking ads and popups without me having to do anything. i dont care that it might sell my data because it's a free service and i dont expect anyone to do work for no pay. sorry, fellas
I use it and default to Google Search
No matter what you shill, Chrome will continue to be the most popular browser by a huge margin. Normies literally do not care as long as they can access their social media and youtube (with ads).
>>101077373>Normies literally do not care as long as they can access their social media and youtube (with ads).What?Chrome isn't the default in Windows nor Samsung's Android. Normies have to effectively seek out Chrome.

>>101081524I've always wondered if that's because of the preload shenanigans.I remember the shitstorm a decade or something ago when that was announced, but I have no idea how that works today on modern browsers.
Chromium is shit. Librewolf is the only useable browser. The one and only exception is if you're forced to use an Apple device (e.g. for work), where your only ad-block option is Brave browser.

I fell for the meme and used FF for almost a year, it was extremely slow and sometimes broke some common websites, it also have some very ugly fonts I'm too lazy to fix Moved to brave 2 months ago and I like it just fine
>>101092851Why bother
>>101092323Literally so what? Nobody disables the built in block lists anyway, this is the case for stock firefox as well
>>101072234>Uses Google as the default search engineWho's gonna tell him?
On Brave Android, the simplify page view doesn't work. People complain about it on their community site, Reddit, and send them feedback, but it still doesn't work and hasn't received any fix.
>>101094564So does firefox
Brave sucks. It gave normies ad-blockers. Now YouTube is going ballistic trying to stop it.

They're constantly trying to find more obscure and contrived ways of scamming their users. They're also a marketing company, so if you have any qualms about using chrome, you have them about using brave. Also their built in adblock sucks shit.
