This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Brave is basically all of the above. I genuinely don't get how anyone is braindead enough to fall for their "privacy" advertising.

The intro-to-programming instructor at the school I work at loves it. But he also has a GME To The Moon sticker on his PC. Seems to be a beloved instructor

IDK, their ad blocker seems to work, so that puts it away ahead of the rest of the Chromium browsers.

But uBlock Origin on Firefox is even better, so I only use Brave to test apps in Chromium.

Could you fill me in as to why Brave is only advertiaed as secure? I understand the ads/crypto thing, but if you arent opted into that and just block the ads, is there anythimg else? I also understand its a Chromium browser, but that doesnt mean google has their hooks in it (necessarily).
