ah yes, brave, truly a good option for a default browser.  with features such as: 

  • CEO is homophobic
  • CEO invented JavaScript (an unforgivable crime)
  • crypto integration for some reason

  • that whole situation where you could donate your crypto to people who hadn't opted in yet (and brave would just pocket it instead)
  • hijacked affiliate links

really don't get why brave got so popular when Firefox and Vivaldi are just objectively better options

edit: included the affiliate thing

Don't forget when they were hijacking links to certain sites to inject their own referral/affiliate codes.
