Nope. Many Chromium forks already have very good inbuilt adblockers , which won’t be affected by the MV3 stuff. On top of that, one could also use system-wide blockers such as AdGuard and DNS-level blockers (which is not even a bad idea if you’re on Windows anyway).
Brave is wrapped up in so much controversy it feels like you’re trolling that you called it a real browser. You’re trolling, right? Have fun with your brave sponsored ads and crypto bullshit. Also you’re still being lead by Google, but I guess that’s okay because it’s in a pretty wrapper.
Lol, as if Mozilla weren’t keep alive by Google’s money (which mainly come from ads, as well). Pathetic and laughable at once.
Use what you prefer and stop bothering me.
They donate a lot to political campaigns that have nothing to do with technology or anything relevant. I use and love Firefox, but this is definitely questionable
that article reads like if my 8 year old nephew read thru my tax return. But no matter how mozilla spend their money, Google are spending money their money on much more questionable and unethical things.
from you’re latest reply i can see you think : security shouldn’t exist™
I’d help you with trademarking that
edit: are you trying to get me to find everyone stupid on lemmy because you lead me to find
kicksystem(at)lemmy.world i can certainly find a stupid person defending him too
Brave is an advertising company, that blocks everyone, but them.
So like very other ad company.
Forcing over people and companies into their system.

The crypto stuff is opt-in.
[citation needed] I’m talking about the legal action stuff. Fun fact, Gab made a Brave fork called Dissenter. Nothing happened to them.
Yeah, Brave VPN is BS.
About Brendan Eich, I can’t see nothing about his beliefs reflecting in his work. Looks like he kept them separated. Also he’s a co-founder of Mozilla. So if you’re not going to use Brave because of him. How can you use Firefox? About Brave lobbying against things like same-sex marriage. Will, [citation needed].
Don’t forget the worst most condescending people working for Brave. I actually had one of their people antagonize me on social media years ago for not liking their invasive homepage at the time.
Yeah surel, I’ll use the inadequate browser but fox the problems with system wide ad blockers, instead of just using a browser, that doesn’t steal my data and let’s me install addons that I want. Google is way out of bounds here imho.
Use whatever suits you. I’m just saying that people already using browsers with a built-in AdBlock aren’t going to switch, because they won’t even notice the MV3 stuff.
IIRC, ABP used to whiteliste some “acceptable” ads (non invasive, etc…). Frankly, it’s been literally ages since I have used it, so I don’t know how they behave right now. I was referring to AdGuard as a system-wide adblocker, though, which is a completely different story.
As long as these browsers themselves exist. Inbuilt adblockers aren’t extension, are integral parts of the browsers, and don’t need to follow extensions’ rules.
As far as I know most inbuilt adblockers, don’t work very well. Especially with yt. Everytime yt does something, you would probably have to wait for new version of your browser, and even then it is questionable if it would work. With ublock origin you just click on one button and you are good to go.
If somebody doesn’t know, I’m talking about refreshing your filters.
I’ll endorse whatever I feel like. And… Inferior? Lol. Just looking at the retard UI of Firefox is enough for me (p.s., I’ve been a FF user for almost 20 year, since it still was Phoenix).
By the way, I’d be curious to know what would happen to FF if somewhat uBlock Origin disappeared. Equivalently, the only thing keeping FF alive (apart from sweet Google’s money) is the existence of uBlock Origin, i.e. an independent extension created and maintained by volunteers. I’m pretty sure that the day uBO dies, is the day FF disappears
System wide ad blockers can’t block a lot of ads, namely same-domain ads or those that are built into the html. Much rarer than the external page kind (DNS ones) thankfully.

You can continue to cope or you can upgrade to a real browser.
I already upgraded to Brave years ago. Thanks. And fuck Mozilla.
Why you got beef with Mozi? They chill
Yeah, no. Too much disregard for the community and useless political crap, apart from hypocrisy on their fake anti-Google stance.
Meanwhile: Uses Brave
Such an ignorant and bad faith statement I won’t even bother to reply.
^ This statement is an outright admission that they’re right.
says won’t bother to reply
replies anyway
They said in their reply.
Are you for real? Everything you said reads like a tech bro caricature
Yawn…

Yet you did.
Would you care to explain to the class?

You mean Chromium Brave Edition?
Brave isn’t any better of an option with all the controversies they’ve had.
If anything, they’re worse.
I could go on.
So like very other ad company.
[citation needed]
If you need Chromium browser. Just use ungoogled-chromium, Windows version.
Don’t forget the worst most condescending people working for Brave. I actually had one of their people antagonize me on social media years ago for not liking their invasive homepage at the time.
And also don’t forget Gab forked out Brave to create Dissenter.

Aren’t all those ad blockers and distribution platforms too? Heard about ABP that sell ad space for example.

Right, thanks for the clarification.
LOl @downvotes from delusional and desperate Mozilla’s shills
For how long?

I’m yet to see any ad since I’ve started using Brave. Din know about YouTube, I don’t use it.
Why would you want to use some Google-coded, bigoted-ceo, crypto-pushing, link hijacking POS like Brave?
Because it’s simply a better browser.
Brave adblock is just a fork of uBlock with a whitelist for Brave’s partners.
It works. Enough for me not to bother with anything else.
Okey dokey mate
That’s fine but you should understand that you shouldn’t endorse an inferior product just because you don’t need anything better
I’ll endorse whatever I feel like. And… Inferior? Lol. Just looking at the retard UI of Firefox is enough for me (p.s., I’ve been a FF user for almost 20 year, since it still was Phoenix).

AFAIK, AdGuard can block same domain ads. I’m not talking about AdGuard DNS, I’m talking about AdGuard app/program.
Namely, Youtube ads
Man’s 3 poignant inquiries away from peddling Brave. Tread carefully folks.
Bravecels are all the same, maybe they get two extra shitcoins every time they shill for it.
They even admit that their attention is basic
Lmao you were right
