Yes, I did it oftn. But main reason to avoid Brave is the somewhat fishy Crypto Policy and the betrayal of users in the past, redirecting searches to related crypto companies, which shows dubious business ethics regarding the user. For me Brave is simply not trustworth.

Much better reasons than insinuating a piece of software is homophobic.

Homophobic the CEO Eich, but for the user it's more important the ethics of the company, questionable in Brave.

Yes. I'm agreeing.

My main issue with it is the fact that the company has shown it is willing to cross boundaries.
