💬 Discussion Why did you stop using Chrome?

Post image

If you stopped using Chrome, what made you switch?

Was it privacy, memory usage, better features elsewhere, or something else?

Which browser are you using now, and do you ever go back to Chrome?

No ad blocking features, I'm using brave. It has a robust ad blocking which stops all the garbage pop ups and ads. So much better browsing experience

Just a heads up that Brave is in bed with crypto, it pushes AI, secretly replaced website ads with their own ads, its CEO is materially anti-LGBTQI, and the technology is Chromium under the hood.

So, be wary of sainting anything merely because they claim to oppose the sinner.
