Hahahhaah. If they are so desperate they are trying to knock off the 10 or so users on Firefox they must really be in dire straights.

One feels there is an allegory for "too stupid to be afraid" buried in here.
used brave for like a year, saved up however much in their stupid coin and when i went to get it, my browser reset how many ads i saw.
Meh, they can shoot at Firefox if they want, but it's actually pretty good marketing for the Fox.

How is it more private, when the browser is the one handling your data to show you ads, on top of the websites trying to do the same. So, extra ads? Wtf.
Brave is also just essentially rebranded Chromium funded by an anti-LGBTQ+ & anti-DEI right-wing CEO.

If you're gonna get a browser with a brave-like experience, might as well get a Firefox based one like Zen.

Fox around and find out
Chromium?
No-ium
Personally I never even considered installing it because of its stupid name.
I tried it a few years ago. Ditched it because it's just another chromium browser.
Firefox has been my main for about 6 years now.
I fell for it because Al Swiegerts book: "Automate the boring stuff" used it in the webscrape sample.
After that I just kept using it. And felt justified in my choice when I realized the only other browsers left are chrome and Safari.
I just learned that Safari is a fork on Konquorer. So, that's interesting.
