    Yet people keep recommending products by this scummy company and pile on Firefox for slightest missteps.

      Mozilla should be scrutinized, even if Firefox is currently the best option.

      I think the only thing keeping them inline is loud community backlash everytime they make one of those misssteps.

      They removed the paw, they are worse than Chrome! I’m going to use an alternative version that cannot exist without the main project to teach them a lesson!

    Brave has always been a joke. And Brave users will always be a joke. And anyone who’s ever simped for Brave will always be a moron.

      Rude. But not inaccurate. Brave pretends to be better than Chrome and Google, but also Mozilla and Firefox at the same time, though Firefox has always done it better and has never contributed to the chromium monopoly. Greed over diversification of the Web and competition between browser engines to effect real change. The least Brave could do is make their own engine.

    Reminds me of a joke:

    My dad always warned us about Septic Tank Steve, and that we should never pay him to do anything, and we should have listened. One day Steve came by and said if we gave him a nickel, he’d swim around in the septic tank. We thought that was hilarious, so we gave him a nickel, and he swam around the tank a while. Then he came and sat next to us on the porch and said “If you want me to leave, gimme $100.”

    This comment section is a great example of tribalism. The topic of web browsers always is for some weird reason.

    The top comment on that site says you can already disable all of these features from within the settings. Is this true?

      I think so, but it’s spread among different menus and flags. Plus if even if you disable it, it’s still there, one of the origin options sounds like it has it fully removed from the code.
