Winner of the most botted shilling of a browser award.

I recently watched this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4mgMZFHv1uM and those comments are 100% botted. That or Brave fags actually think that only that browser can hide ads lmao.

You have to realize that Brave is AIMED AT NORMIES and it is genuinely GOOD AT IT.
That is the entire point of Brave, INSTALL IT AND IT DOES THE THING, literally, normies cba installing shit on Firefox or configuring it, and if t hey're on Chrome they just don't care about ADs 80% of the time nor can they cba with uBO Lite.
>>
most of the /g/ threads are botted too
i fell for it and tried it out, the first thing i was met with was a popup asking if i want to pay for their VPN and a whole section for my fucking crypto wallet
obviously not something an organic /g/ poster would touch in a million years

That's really weird because on my machine, Brave actually just works.
My laptop, my phone, my desktop, my tablet, I don't see ads on any of them because I use Brave.
Brave is based.

people pay for youtube prem for shit like pip mode and no ads on iphone when brave just does it for you, worth it even in its severely-gimped webkit form

Where the $150 dollar equivalent of a brand new iphone? Oh yeah, doesnt exist because your post is horse shit. I bought my lowtier android phone from moto brand new for $150. There is no iphone sold for that price you liar jeetnigger cancer assfaggot

Yeah, but I don't need any of those things because I use Brave and it just works, so deal with it.

my point is that any browser can have it, so idk why you would prefer one that has consistently lied to its users

>>108221254
He was retarded for saying revanced. That bloated pos with an app install size of +300mb should never be recommended.
He should have said newpipe, app install size of -30mb, no logging in bullshit. Subscribe to channels and save playlists locally. The true basedman way

Brave genuinely works the best on iOS. Offers the most control and customization compared to other well known browsers on iOS. Theres better options when it comes to Brave on other platforms though.

Firefox was botted back in the day with the Spread Firefox project and newspaper adverts.

I honestly don't care that it's shilled by sloptubers, it made the web browsable again on an old iphone I had given up on. Without it you can't even open a website without half of the screen being covered in video ads that take you to other sites when you try to close them

On Brave I only have to do 1 captcha on 4chan. With any other browser I have to do 3. I have no idea why but that alone makes it worth using.

What's the point of Brave when you can just install Chromium with uBlock? Same thing without all the bloat.
>>
>>108220706
I save so much time just installing Brave than dealing with another browser's suboptimal v3 manifest bullshit ad blocker

Chromium is unusable on multi-monitor setups.
Just use hardened Firefox. It's the best browser out there.
>>
>>108220681
Its the only browser that can hide ads by default that has > 100 million users

>it's continued existence is actually desired by Google because as long as it's kept on life support and only eats less than 1% of the market, they can claim they're not a monopoly, so actually every single tranny shilling Trannyfox is just prolonging Google monopoly because they keep alive the very reason why Google cannot be taken to court over monopoly practices and have Chromium taken away from them

Fell for it.

I always thought this was just shilled by retards but after seeing how openly the GrapheneOS devs recommend it I feel I may have fallen prey to a smear campaign.

>>108226529
Funniest part is that it's way worse out of the box than Brave and you need to tinker with it to make it truly privacy friendly, which is something 99% of it's users won't do. Retards shilling it actually cause more harm.

The browser for the brain dead
>>
>>108220681
i used it for years and love it
best anti fingerprinting out of the box as far as i know. brave was the first to solve tab icon fingerprinting for example.

other than that all chromium browsers are the same, like ive installed helium,chromium and its just a slightly worse brave

>>
>>108229469
Yes, but it also has AI and Crypto enabled by default, hence the normie part, they do not care about those as long as it blocks ADs out of the box. And the homepage is an AD fest, but again, it's fine for normies because it's Brave ADs.
>>
>>108229797
nta but this is one of the reasons why I don't mind brave. It's pretty obvious how they monetize themselves and why they make the decisions they do. It's easier to tolerate a company if that company does what you expect them to do even if you don't like it right then right there.
The ai shit is annoying though.
