    Daily reminder that

    • Brave’s CEO donates to homophobic organizations and
    • Brave is connected to the BAT pay-to-surf scam

    Don’t use Brave.

      • Brave is based on Chromium and therefore helps contribute to Google having hegemony over web standards.

      Always use a Firefox-based browser, even if you think Mozilla sucks.

          Ideally don’t use iOS it’s a walled garden, you don’t really control your device

        At least until Ladybird is ready. I hope they are not under too much pressure to rush things so we get a truly independent web browser.

          If it relies on Chromium as a base in any way, it is still beholden to Google’s design decisions.

      Yup! It is noted in the highlighted text in red. I’ve had several people respond that they didn’t know about it, and would be making the switch away :)
