Brave Browser was founded by a notorious homophobe who funded anti-gay laws and lobbies and it also doing crypto scams with their bullshit token. It also furthers the hegemony of Google's web browser engine Blink and their monopoly over the internet. Stop using Brave, stop recommending it.

Use Firefox with uBlock origin.

@Siph I continue to be amazed by people going "but Brave has an ad-blocker built in, you don't need a separate extension!"

Like... that (practically irrelevant) technicality apparently is enough for some people to not care about all the ethical issues?

@joepie91 @Siph Also Vivaldi has a built-in ad blocker and is (IMO) the generally better browser of the two (though it's still a Chromium-based browser).
