I used Brave for a bit after it came out. All the built-in crypto bullshit wasn't anything I ever touched. I can't remember if I quit some time before Chrome announced the manifest-v3, or if that made me swear off all Chromium browsers for good.

Anyway, also apparently the creators are huge assholes, so there is that, but as I never had any intent to support them financially I just thought I'd use a privacy-focused browser. Meh. Firefox has all the plugins a person could ever want.

I mean, use whatever browser you like. Lemmy is cool and basically right about a lot of things, but fuck the zeitgeist and make up your own mind about shit. I went a different way, but forge your own path.
