Sorry you got downvoted. Once again people are downvoting positive posts about Brave blindly.
It’s no coincidence that the only open source browser that actually blocks ads is the one that gets downvoted all the time. Meanwhile people are dead silent when someone recommends a fully closed source chrome alternative that makes money from search tracking. 🤔

What you cannot turn off are the homophobic views of Brendan Eich, Braves CEO and co-founder.

Nor their history with intercepting/inserting affiliate links. Sure, that was for a crypto site, but nothing suggests that it can’t happen with other things.

Holy shit… when the Browser itself becomes the Man-in-the-Middle attack

Gnome web blocks ads, and getting an adblocking extension on Firefox forks is super easy
What browser are you talking about here?
Vivaldi
But this whole discussion was started by a highly upvoted comment that says: “But why vivaldi of all things?”, followed by the poster explaining in further detail why they don’t think it’s a good choice. That’s “dead silent”?
The votes, not the replies. There’s a bunch of silent lurkers on here who just browse for comments on brave to downvote them.
