So this is essentially an ungoogled Chromium run by an actual company and not a single maintainer who will abandon the project on a random Thursday?
>>109467789don't know; don't care>*I shit my pants violently*
>>109467801/thread
Why does /g/ hate Brave so much?
>>109467789Why would you buy this when turning the crypto nonsense off is one button in normal Brave.
>>109467845I'm allergic to chrome
>>109468018>buyhttps://github.com/ObjectAscended/brave-origin-unlocker
>>109468114Why would you do this?
>>109467789Sounds like a scam, like everything else that "actual company" does. It must be getting desperate for them if they had to send their Indian shills again.
>>109467789>So this is essentially an ungoogled Chromium run by an actual company and not a single maintainer who will abandon the project on a random Thursday?yes, but /g/ still hates chromium monoculture.support firefox.
>>109468346>support firefox.Not even Mozilla supports Firefox.
I tried it and it's not like ungoogled chromium it still has a bunch of retarded settings and features and a bloated ui, ungoogled chromium is as bare bones as it gets it is just a browser with 0 frills.
>>109468446>it still has a bunch of retarded settings and features and a bloated uithe UI is literally basic chromium and the retarded settings and features are just the built in adblock and the "memory saver", everything else is default? what the fuck are you talking about
>Privacy. By default. Browse the internet with privacy, privately. Just one click. Browse the internet privately. Privacy.
>>109468446>ungoogled chromium is as bare bones as it gets it is just a browser with 0 frillsno, it's missing essential features like syncing and drm
>>109468557>essentialNot really
>>109468577how about ad blocking then?google will remove ublock origin from the chrome web store at the end of this month: https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/develop/migrate/mv2-deprecation-timelineenjoy having no easy ad blocking in ungoogled chromium since it relies on the chrome web store for auto-updating extensions.
>>109468598AdGuard offers the same featuresAnd you can still install uBlock manually
>>109468598
>>109468665ungoogled chromium can use the brave hosted version now?
>>109468614adguard is comparable to ublock origin lite. it's not the same as ublock origin.https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBOL-home/wiki/Frequently-asked-questions-(FAQ)#if-i-install-ubol-will-i-see-a-difference-with-ubo
>>109468708It's basically the same if you don't install super huge block lists
>>109468725it cannot block ads in spotify anymorehttps://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBOL-home/issues/293(inbefore spotify never worked in ungooglged chromium since spotify needs drm which ungoogled chromium never had by default)
>>109467845le lion shill
>>109468614AdGuard is as bad as uBO Lite.Also uBlock doesn't exist, it's uBlock Origin and it shits on the rest, put some respect onto that name.
>>109467789>made by fgts for fgts
So far I'm happy with Helium, thanks
>>109469535>Helium>a single maintainer who will abandon the project on a random Thursday
>>109468158Because fuck the chud brave CEO that's why
>>109467789Fluorescent post
>>109468346I ditched Firefox the moment it tried to push AI into my browser and sell my data, switched to Ungoogled Chromium and never looked back. I stopped tinkering with browser UI long time ago and its uBlock origin just werks, haven't seen any ads so far.>>109467789Ungoogled Chromium is fast and clean. I will prefer a single maintainer that just removes bullshit from my browser over a corporation with a built in cryptowallet and le good ads in its product any time.Hope you got your +0.1 BAT for creating this thread, Rajeesh.
>>109467845Garbage ass fake-privacy crypto miner browser>>109468346No. Chromium is GOAT
Firefox is my main but have you tried the tree style tabs on brave?
>>109471904Ungoogled Chromium lacks security patches, so you're asking to have your data stolen anyway
>>109472215source?
>>109472343Basic logic.Unless you compile Chromium from source every day, you will lag behind with some security patches.
>>109471924The Origins version of Brave doesn't have crypto features.
Okay but can I customise the UI like UserChrome.css let you in FF decades ago?Or am I stuck with the god awful default of brave?
>>109472865>pay to get rid of bloatware.State of software in 2026
>good goy! keep using a blink-based browser, look at all of your CHOICES...
>>109473052>he thinks we are ignorant retards and don't know.You are not impressing anyone. Everyone knows it by now.
>>109471389> chud brave CEO
>>109473050you complain about bloatware and you use Windows?It's free on Linux.
>>109473528Who says I use windows
>>109473571You're not using linux if you mentioned paying for it.
>>109473701What are you talking about, faggot? I didn't pay for nothing.
>>109473708I meant you mentioned paying for it in general terms like people pay for it.
>>109473736Oh yeah. Retarded people. Ain't paying for a browser lol.
>>109473748I mean you're kind of retarded yourself though aren't you? You're witholding info about which OS you're using cuz you got called out. I bet you're a window-fag. Come on, be coy with me one more time.

>>109473789I hit the mark didn't I?
BAT is fake currency, iirc it gives 10 BAT for everyone who used browser a while decade ago
>>109473854all that is removed in this version
>>109467789It’s technically a bit better because there’s a few features like CNAME uncloaking that Ublock Origin can’t do on Chromium but can on Firefox, Brave wrote those missing features into the rust-based adblocker. It’s really just the same situation as Firefox vs its forks, it’s a degree of hipster/contrarianism with Brave vs the other Ungoogled chromium clones. Brave vs Firefox ultimately just comes down to whether you’re okay with using chromium or not too, or if you want/need the customization of FirefoxBut origin is not needed, you can turn off any of these things in regular Brave, it’s mostly just a fancy way to support them it seems
>>109467789Almost all open-source browser development relies on either the Blink or Gecko engine and active development only takes place on Brave or Firefox; other forks are a meme, with features that fail to work on some modern websites
>>109472856Can I actually see what these "security patches" do?
>>109467789Brave shills are somehow even more wretched than chrome shillsI hope you’re getting paid for this, what with deepthroating vulture capitalism microdick, and not doing this godforsaken company a solid for freeoh and kys
>>109467845It's hated by three distinct groups. 1. Homosexuals, they hate Brave Browser because they hate Brave's CEO for being homophobic2. Anti-cryptos, they hate everything to do with crypto-currency on principle regardless of details. 3. Firefox fanatics, they can't stand that their favorite browser suddenly has competition and they see Brave as a threat to their continued relevance. In reality rhese groups have lots of overlap.
>>109475461Yes, just clone the codebase and ask Codex or ClaudeCode or <InsertLLMHarnessOfChoice> to summarize the recent patches.
>>109475885lmao retard
>>109475896>Noooooo how DARE YOU point out that the code is open source!!!>How DAAARE YOU Insintuate that I can see the changes for myself!!!! Maybe a closed source browser like Vivaldi is more your speed.
>>109473050you can also compile it from source, it's obvious that Origin is meant to be a donation of sorts and not a replacement for Brave, features like TOR support were also removed iirc
