Edit: wtf. I’ve gotten downvoted to oblivion in the past for simply mentioning that Brave search has its own search index. Now I try to pass along the message of those downvoters and I get downvoted again.
Zen is just preselected no telemetry Firefox, also bleeding edge with Firefox updates
Brave is fine ish but they have issues, and a lot of them, which they usually fix within 24 hours but they’ve had a track record of like 8-10 issues per year, so just under once a month.
Apparently it was an auto complete issue that was fixed within 48 hours, but even still, there’s always something wrong with Brave multiple times a year
I read the article.
But also I’m out of the loop on why ppl hate Brave. Can someone clue me in?
Is there a better cross-platform browser? I like to use the same one across devices.
They hate the politics of one of the developers.

Don’t downvote me to hell cause it’s a reddit link, sorry, this is the most concise list I know of: https://www.reddit.com/r/browsers/s/AErPH6iMl0
Brave is the only browser I’m aware of whose “issues” rise to the level of “we’re going to hijack your URL bar and insert our own affiliate links”

Imagine actually believing that lol
Of course it was fucking intentional, they just got caught
I said “apparently” lol. It was still a brave referral link they got money from, so i have no doubt it wasn’t a mistake
