Was reading an answer to the question about fresh Amazon tablet and saw this. They used up the question as a hook to promote their browser. Pretty sure I’m avoiding Brave from now on.

Q: Does the fire max 11 have YouTube app on it. A: I have installed Google Playstore , but I skip installing Youtube app . There is better option . Brave Browser in Playstore !! That thing has AWESOME popup Blocker and it’s own integrated Youtube Ads and other Nuisances blocker . My point ? You don’t need youtube on Fire max , You don’t need Google Maps , You don’t need Facebook App . Just Use Brave .

    They were using crypto miners in Brave

    Huh? They have a crypto service that you can easily opt out of.

    altering search result’s

    …they have their own search engine they built from scratch. So yeah.

    also something about their CEO being a weirdo I think

    I love weirdos

    And also all this dirty advertising and tactic

    This is an incredibly generic complaint

    Maybe people “don’t listen” because you’re full of crap.
