You mean Brave Origin without the crypto stuff built-in, right?
>>108696109>lighter versionOnce you disable all the bloat maybe...
>>108696145>brave origin>is free on linux>but not on macos and windows where 80% of brave users areI don't get this marketing
>le shill lionWhere's your "Don't be evil" policy?Thought so.
>>108696138It is, though.
>>108696109Brave has strictly more bloat than Chrome and also has the same telemetry and more ads. Actually it's worse, not even Edge has the fucking make our search engine better by sending us the content of your HTTPS pages shit.

>using Chrome
>>108696109aren't you too old to feel edgy for getting paid to see ads?
>>108696109I honestly only use Brave just because its ads block works well. But man, Brave is fucking ugly.I hate that people don't really talk enough about its ugly ass default setting.I don't care about "Leo AI"I don't care about them wallet, brave "rewards" or whatever.Even its logo is fucking ugly, fuck brave
>>108696109Are there even any usable Chrome browsers? Mozilla is trying their hardest every day to finish of Firefox off, but it(and it's forks) still seems like the only viable alternative.Whatever happened to the whole manifest v3 thing that was gonna kill ublock? Was that just a big nothing?

>Using ChromiumStopped reading right there.
>>108696181I bought Brave Origin.
>>108696109>Lighter versionThat shit's packed to the gills with bloatware and wants you to pay 60 bux to remove it.
>>108697049bravetroons got real quiet after this was posted.
>>108697049And there's cambridganalytica article. The author hasn't posted on tech, since. The article is still up, which suggest no cease and desist, and no suit was filed. Fear of discovery or cost/benefit. Some say that the article is non-credible because of the lack of supporting documentation, but the public exposure of such documentation would risk outing the mole in Brave, were the article based on a leak, which, given it's claims, would have to be.Braves strategy, since, has been viral marketing via shills and a paid version that supposedly strips out the spyware.
>>108697049Chromium doesn't have reproducible builds. Brave is based on Chromium. Take it up with Google.>if you compile it yourself it strips the branding which proves the actual browser you download is a proprietary trademarked asset not covered by the open licenseYou heard it here first, Firefox is officially proprietary.>a truly open source project would never need to execute man in the middle attacks on user referral linksThat's not what a mitm attack is and that has nothing to do with open source licensing.It's obvious you have just arbitrarily decided that you don't like Brave and are reverse engineering reasons that it's bad.
>>108696109Using chrome derivatives when you could use firefox based....
>>108696109>doesn't block ads on 4chan
Brave is good.I use it.Le shill lion.That being said, it is NOT lighter at all.Their ad revenue model is anonymized, but still doing telemetry out the ass, which hogs resources.Helium is good alternative if you're looking for a stripped down Chrome with built in uBO
>>108696109Chrome is the browser for people who used Internet Explorer until Chrome came out.>>108696138https://github.com/brave/brave-core
>>108700530Unfortunately, Gecko-based browsers are such an insignificant market share that many sites will break on Gecko, since the website admits don't even test for it
>>108696239>>108696306Evidence?
>>108696181Ittodlers and windottlers are cattle that will eat up anything. They respect linux users.
>>108700549Very few websites break on Gecko.More websites say they won't work on Gecko than actually won't work on Gecko.
>>108697049Life must be hard on retard mode
I use Zen
>>108696890sometimes you gotta, occasionally websites simply don't support gecko
>>108700533>Skill issue

>>108696109Is there any legitimate reason to use this over Firefox with arkenfox user.js and uBlock origin medium mode
>>108700679It's faster.
>>108697049When will the real open source and based browser comes out?Or we are stuck with the ungogled chromium?
>>108700675But why do I need it? And why does your watch need to tell you?
>>108700961
>>108696109>using Chrome
>>1087006794k works better on chromium so use a stripped chromium with UBO
>>108696109I only use it on shitty bloated webapps that work better on chromium like youtube. There adblock engine is not that good compared to UBO.
>>108700580If they respected GNU/+Linux users then Crypto & self-served Advertisements wouldn't even be a part of Brave by default.If they respected GNU/+Linux users then the Origin version wouldn't be Chromium based.Looks like you guys eat up any shit they throw at you as well, they just have to fill it with a lot of buzzwords.
>>108699010>Take it up with Google.Eat shit, Brave doesn't provide reproducible builds for the source code they provide. You're arguing in circles out of sheer stupidity and brand loyalty.
>>108700540>Brave is good.No.>>108700893It isn't.

Yesterday I've installed Origin nightly and must say it's still pretty much RAW.All polices configured as OK even for components which is not in build. Found some issues with extensions (actually I have only one) and it can't be installed in Origin.Origin still require a little hardening manually by settings some flags cause default values is not OK for privacy. About 10 mins to set it for the same way as regular Brave.personally I didn't find any use case for Origin at least for now.
I see the brave marketers are assaulting the board again. Their little brave origin stunt must have gone horribly for them if they need to resort to this crap.
>>108703051Wow, imagine having to edit your fucking hosts file to use a bloated version of a spyware browser. Who makes this horseshit, adobe? Is this real life, and you really expect anyone to do any of this?Are you unwell, you dumb cunt?

>>108702874It's free software. You implement reproducible builds.

Get fucken wireshark or any alternative you like and check by yourself like I did.I have all ASNs\A-AAAA records which Brave using. I didn't find any suspicious activity.

So, do you street shitters get paid per thread, or just to keep the thread bumped?
>>108702881It is, chromium is just generally faster and better performing than gecko always. I couldn't care less about your gay little culture wars and schizo tinfoil hait theories. That's an objective fact.

>>108700961uhm anon, i have 5 blocked on 4chan
>>108697016Chromium is sabotaging ad blocking and while it works it's not as effective as it is on firefox.So chrome browsers as you put it are not worth using unless your work requires you to.
