Thank you for standing your ground. You have my respect.
You get a 9/10 :D (joke)
Though I wouldn’t justify myself to the cult. You’re too nice for what the cult deserves.
You’re 100% correct, none of this is relevant to the problem. However…
Point No. 1 is irrelevant the most. Though being based on Chromium isn’t really a bad thing necessarily. Brave has removed all google stinks from brave. They have a full list of what they’ve done, and it’s very impressive.
Point No. 2 is not true. Brave doesn’t run any mining software in the background. That’s a myth. No one in the world runs the amount of monitoring I do on my computers, be it network monitoring, CPU, etc. Brave doesn’t do anything like that. I would’ve noticed in a microsecond.
Point No. 3 is the cultist reason for this.
Because it’s not allowed by the cult. Don’t you get it? The cult has decided that brave is bad… so… brave is bad for some dumb propagandistic reason that makes zero sense and that doesn’t contribute to solving OPs problem.
You went against the cult. How dare you!
